Artists' Textiles has over 100 stunning new illustrations of textiles for fashion and furnishings designed by artists living or working in Britain for British companies during the period 1945-1970. This was a time of belief in 'Art for the People' in the new democratic spirit of Post-war Britain and has parallels in other media such as school prints. A comprehensive introduction by Geoff Rayner puts the period in its context, giving an historical perspective and covering contemporary events such as the Painting into Textiles exhibition at the ICA in 1953. The final section of the book features an alphabetical biography; included are the artists and the manufacturers. Published to coincide with an exhibition at The Fine Art Society, London, March - April 2003
