Anna Freeman Bentley, Honour and Grandeur
Publication
Anomie, London, 2015

Casebound, 98 pp., 220 × 190 mm

Anna Freeman Bentley is a painter based in London. Her practice explores the built environment, architecture and interiors, inviting emotive, psychological and semiotic readings of space. With an intense, regularly dark palette and energetic yet often intricate brushwork, her paintings depict all manner of places – derelict factories and warehouses, baroque buildings, shops, cafes, and modern industrial and corporate architecture. This, the artist’s first monograph, features over seventy works spanning her career to date, offering a journey through the built environment that takes the viewer into realms as diverse as psychogeography and heterotopias, romanticism and modernism.
