{"product_id":"9780847849796","title":"Peter Doig by Catherine Lampert","description":"In every generation of artists, there are a few who propose a new set of ques- tions and alter the way we understand art. Peter Doig is such an artist. This handsome monograph considers the painter's entire career, beginning with the early  work  produced  in  the  1990s  when  Doig's  enigmatic  but  wholly  new conception  of  painting  was  first  introduced  to  audiences.  Doig  was  born  to Scottish  parents,  spent  several  years  as  a  child  in  Trinidad,  later  settling  in Canada for his formative early teen years. He found his voice while at art school in London, albeit one that was out of step with the work of the time (much of it installation-based  and  dripping  with  neo-conceptualist  leanings).  He  had developed a small following of fellow artists and critics when the rest of the art world caught up and took notice. In 2002, he left London for Trinidad, where he  has  remained.  The small  Caribbean island-with  its own  distinctive light and  landscape-has  deeply  influenced  his  recent  work.  This  volume  was designed in close collaboration with the artist, with a cover and various interior elements created especially by the artist.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56295085670773,"sku":"9780847849796","price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780847849796.jpg?v=1762767161","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780847849796","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
