John Hoyland: Power Stations: Paintings 1964-1982
John Hoyland: Power Stations: Paintings 1964-1982. 2016. 144 pages, fully illustrated in colour. Hardback. 31 x 24cms. Published on the occasion of the inaugural exhibition at Newport Street Gallery, built to house work from Damien Hirst's art collection, the catalogue explores Hoyland's intuitive manipulation of color, form and texture. Including work drawn from a pivotal period in Hoyland's career (1964 to 1982) Power Stations shows an artist equally comfortable with geometric and gestural abstraction, combining elements of both in vividly hued, large-scale paintings. The first extensive survey of Hoyland's work since the artist's death in 2011.

Byzantium. Faith and Power (1261-1557)
Evans, Helen C. et al: Byzantium. Faith and Power (1261-1557). Exhibition: New York, Metropolitan Museum, 2004. c.650pp with 718 colour and 152 monochrome illustrations. Cloth, 31.5x24cms.

Byzantine artistic and intellectual practices influenced both the development of the Renaissance in Italy, and the Islamic world, which adapted motifs drawn from Byzantium's imperial past. Also explores how Byzantine art was also emulated and transformed in other Eastern Christian centres of power, among them Russia, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Cilician Armenia. Supported by scholarly essays, maps and photography of ecclesiastical architecture.
