When she was given some prisms by a physicist friend in the mid-1970s, her painting took on a new direction. Looking through a prism, she saw objects with a rim of prismatic colour. She explored and developed these ideas, often painting pictures that verged on the abstract.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsing specific paintings to examine her ideas and writings about colour, the book includes her late ''prismatic'' pictures which have never been properly explained. These pictures were a culmination of her life''s search to find \"form''s secret and rhythmic law\". She painted them in Greece in 1979, at her home in Cumbria, and during her last painting trip to the Island of Eigg in the Hebrides in 1980, where she had an inspired period of painting and made some of her best-loved pictures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePublished on the occasion of the exhibition\u003ci\u003e Liberation of Colour\u003c\/i\u003e at the Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art, the book illustrates many previously unseen paintings from private collections, as well as some of Nicholson''s best known works. It also draws on new research, including previously unseen archival material.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57555410452862,"sku":"NW9781781300466","price":27.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781781300466.jpg?v=1783122384","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/en-usa\/products\/winifred-nicholson-liberation-of-colour","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
