Thomas McKnight's
Arcadia
|
Best known for his celestial
interiors and landscapes of the world’s most beautiful places,
Thomas McKnight has also been concerned with an interior world
he calls Arcadia—a place where nymphs linger by ancient springs,
oracles speak, and angels appear. In the past decade, in a burst
of creativity, McKnight has developed
|
|
|
|
a new style to best depict
these interior visions. A selection of over one hundred of the
new paintings has been made for this handsome new monograph. The
beautiful, full color plates and myriad details are accompanied
by text and commentary
by Francesco Colonna, an Italian art
critic. In a |
far-ranging essay Colonna
discusses how McKnight’s latest work is situated in a new but
traditional way of looking at and thinking about art. This
enchanting new body of work by one of the major artists working
today is collected here for the first time and it will transport
the reader to the earthly paradise of the painter’s imagination.
