Roy Oxlade has maintained a strong presence in British painting for 40 years and is well known to those for whom painting matters more than establishment recognition. Student of Bomberg, Oxlade took his own path, evolving a form of "real" painting that has been widely influential among artists seeking an essential means of working uncorrupted by the commercial world of fine art. Oxlade's approach is eloquently expressed in his writing. His argument may at times be radical, but his philosophy is compelling, liberating and sane. This book makes available Roy Oxlade's controversial imagery and writing in one publication for the first time.
