The Sculpture of John Skeaping

Although his career spanned six decades, John Skeaping (1901-1980) is often associated with the work he completed while he was married to Barbara Hepworth. However, this period of just six years (1926 to1932) ignores the breadth of Skeaping's visual output and fails to reflect his true artistic legacy. Long overdue, The Sculpture of John Skeaping surveys the artist's rich career in the round. Including a full catalogue of Skeaping's sculptures plus over 200 reproductions of the artist's works, the book is essential reading for all those interested in learning more about this unjustly neglected figure within British sculpture.
