More About This Title Jack Vettriano: Studio Life

English

His pictures sell for a record amount of money, the paintings in his exhibitions are always sold out before the opening, and "The Singing Butler" made history for being the most expensive painting by a Scottish living artist ever to be sold at auction. Here, for the first time, we get up close and personal with Jack in the studio. We see how he works in his studios in Scotland, London, and Nice, and we see how these locations influence his paintings. Jack's own cultural influences and the influences his work has come to have on popular culture in turn are analyzed. The book also includes brand-new, never-before-seen paintings. With outstanding and revealing photography by Jillian Edelstein and a foreword from Jack's friend, author Ian Rankin, this is a book sure to delight Jack Vettriano's fans.

English

Jack Vettriano's solo exhibition in Edinburgh was a sell-out and since then he has had solo exhibitions in London, Hong Kong, New York, and Rome.

"Vettriano's popularity has increased so much since his paintings were first published in book form . . . that posters of his work are now outselling those of Van Gogh. A true romantic, Vettriano paints high-gloss fantasies that gift wrap heartache."  —Booklist on Lovers and Other Strangers: Paintings by Jack Vettriano"Wonderful."  —Library Journal on Jack Vettriano
