Description:... Sean Scully is one of the foremost abstract artists of contempoary art. This book provides reproductions of his huge oil paintings from the period 1982-1996. These paintings are reminiscent of the shades and geometric shapes of traditional Moroccan carpets. Scully stated after a visit to Morocco that he was moved ....by the way carpets lay around partially covering each other in stores. The book vibrates with bold arrangements of stripes in Scully's trademark glowing colours of ochre, ivory, deep red and black.
