`HYLTON NEL - CONVERSATIONS` FIRST EDITION

"HYLTON NEL - CONVERSATIONS" 2003 FIRST EDITION, 127 PAGES, IN EXCELLENT CONDITION

This lavishly illustrated book on Hylton Nel and his work, jointly published by Michael Stevenson and the Fine Arts Society in London, includes a long interview with Nel on his life and work. Nel describes himself as an artist-potter which aptly refers to his interest in painted imagery as well as form and function. Over the past four decades he has developed a style of work that is rich in references to the decorative arts and literary and art historical sources. His plates, bowls, vases, plaques and figurative pieces are idiosyncratically decorated with witty and sometimes poignant line drawings and script.
