Full-color, museum-quality reproductions of new work by exciting English-born, New York City-based artist Trevor Winkfield, with a critical appreciation by Jed Perl. With references to heraldic devices and the conventions of Medieval manuscript illustration, Winkfield creates a reflection of a thoroughly modern world that combines pop-modernism and iconic romanticism. Using an abundance of symbols, Winkfield creates an inherent tension in the work, juxtaposing highly-disciplined, stylized forms with unrestrained fantasy of image. In his accompanying essay, critic Jed Perl notes this polarity as, "... an art of cool surfaces and madcap subjects" and writes that "... (An) inimitable aura of oddity and aplomb, the two sensationally mixed, is something that you find in all Winkfield's best work". With an introduction by John Ashbery.
