From the human truths, brutalist architecture and packed tube trains of 1970s London to the vineyards, Renaissance châteaux
and riotous festivals of Gascon France, Michael Fell (1939 – 2023) chronicled the world he saw. His exuberant paintings and prints
explore the sadnesses, humour and joys of ordinary people in work combining technical freedom with visual wit, compassion and delight. Fell’s visions of city, town and landscape raise intriguing questions about the relationship between perception and feeling. Motifs and images of day to day life, captured with Fell’s fine draftsmanship, appear alongside literary, religious andaesthetic allusion.
The Art of Michael Fell, edited by art historian Andrew Wilton, explores the artist’s life, work and influences, with
perspectives from leading figures in the world of art criticism, painting and print making. This richly illustrated study will bring
a new appreciation and understanding of the original, technically inventive and wide ranging oeuvre of a notably private artist.
Andrew Wilton was the inaugural Curator of the Clore Gallery Turner Collection, and Keeper of the British Collection at Tate.
Contributors include painter and former Financial Times art critic William Packer, print maker Adrian Bartlett, the Reverend
John Summers, and contemporary art dealer and writer Katie Alice Fitz Gerald.
