Ronnie Wood is one of the foremost rock guitarists in the world, but his
artistic talents extend beyond music. Published together for the first
time and in Wood's seventieth year, here is the first comprehensive
collection of paintings and other works that exudes the same
irrepressible energy as the Rolling Stones themselves.
Organized thematically, Ronnie Wood: Artist focuses on rock 'n' roll
performances and depictions of stage performances as only the band could
witness. Additional chapters show both the breadth of his instincts and
style in works on figures, landscapes, animal paintings, and sculptures.
The artist himself provides the captions and insight into the thought
and motivation behind each piece. An introduction is provided by Damien
Hirst, one of the most successful contemporary artists of the modern era
and a rabid fan and collector of Wood's art. An afterword by guitar
legend and Wood's bandmate Keith Richards brings the book to its
conclusion.
