{"product_id":"9783791379661","title":"Alice Neel : Hot Off the Griddle by Eleanor Nairne","description":"Alice Neel was one of the great American painters of the twentieth century and a pioneer among women artists. A painter of people, landscape and still life, Neel was never fashionable or in step with avant-garde movements. \"One of the reasons I painted was to catch life as it goes by,\" she explained, \"right hot off the griddle.\" This beautifully designed volume takes a unique approach to the exhibition catalog, highlighting Neel's understanding of the fundamentally political nature of how we look at others, and what it means to feel seen. Long a favorite of portrait lovers, Neel has recently gained an even wider 21st-century audience appreciative of the searing candor with which she viewed the world, the depth of her humanity, and her championing of the underdog. This beautifully produced catalog features a thoroughly modern design, as well as an essay by renowned critic Hilton Als and poetry by Daisy Lafarge.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56309802959221,"sku":"9783791379661","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9783791379661.jpg?v=1762813373","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9783791379661","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
