The first monograph on the work of painter Carole Gibbons (b. 1935), this book explores the distinctive and imaginative art of one of Glasgow's most notable artists from the latter half of the 20th century. Gibbons' paintings are characterized by their vibrant use of color and their ability to convey narratives that encompass both darkness and light. The works are rich in symbolism and narrative, blending art-historical and mythological motifs with the artist's personal experiences to offer a glimpse into a passionate and deeply felt inner life.
