Produktbeschreibung
Peter Gregory, Director and then Chairman of Lund Humphries, was at the heart of the avant-garde British art world for nearly thirty years of major change in society, politics, and culture. A pioneering art publisher and printer, he was also a discerning patron and collector and a highly effective champion of contemporary art and design. Valerie Holman's new book is the first to situate Gregory's life and career within the wider context of printing and publishing history, war, and changing perceptions of modern and contemporary art. By drawing for the first time on Gregory's unpublished diaries and correspondence, it offers insights into what motivated him, his political stance and attitude to industry, as well as his views on art and literature.
