My paintings talk of relationships,A" writes Scully in an interview conducted exclusively for this collection, How bodies come together. How they touch. How they separate. How they live together, in harmony and disharmony.A" Scully's involvement with this beautiful volume extends to its design. The result is a compelling exploration of one of the most important living artists' work.
