KURT JACKSON Painting - Sea: Sky - Light - Land - Cornwall By Jeremy Robinson A new book about the British landscape painter Kurt Jackson (b. 1961). This edition includes many new illustrations. including photographs taken for this new edition. The text has been completely updated. EXTRACT FROM CHAPTER 4: One of Kurt Jackson's appealing concepts is that the ocean is one of the last true wildernesses left on the planet. It's an idea that I found very interesting when he explained it to me when we first met in St Just. I took it that he meant a spiritual as well as an ecological or natural wilderness. Jackson's art can thus be seen as an art that is the border region between humanity and nature, between culture and nature, as well as literally tackling that area - the coast - which is neither land nor sea. Fully illustrated. Also available in hardcover. www.crmoon.com
