Description

"The first book to explore the life and work of exuberant and compelling British Columbia artist Godfrey Stephens, whose work reflects nautical, modern and classical influences, along with the formative influence of his boyhood relationship with Kwakwaka'wakw Master Carver Chief Mungo Martin. From towering sculptures likened to abstract totem poles, to psychedelic whirling paintings and sailing vessels crafted without blueprints or tape measures, the breadth and scope of Godfrey's artistic output is staggering. Includes excerpts of the author's lifelong correspondence with her artist uncle." - front flap. Lavishly produced with 237 colour and black and white photos with over 50 full page photos and bleeds. pp. viii, [2], 131. Clean, bright and unmarked with negligible wear. Gift quality. Rather than simply as a book, one is tempted to describe this beautiful item as a vivacious event! Book
