Book Synopsis Francis Bacon in St Ives by : Ben Tufnell
Book excerpt: This book, that accompanies a Tate St Ives exhibition focusing on Bacon's art between 1957 and 1962, presents a number of the works he painted whilst in St Ives together with a selection of paintings and drawings made both shortly before and after this period. Bacon's concentration during this time on the solitary figure lying down, sleeping or walking, and his experimentation with brush strokes, colour, and chiaroscuro to create an illusion of a moulded form or face, is presented as a result of the important explorative time the painter spent in St Ives.
