Out of the Shadows | The colourful life & work of Sven Berlin

Sonia Aarons, with contributions by John Paddy Browne and David Wilkinson
 
Sven Berlin Out of the Shadows is an introduction to the extraordinary story of Sven Berlin's life (1911-1999) and work as sculptor, painter, writer and poet. A colourful extravaganza, this well illustrated book is a record of Sven's life's work and showcases his many talents. There is life on stage in the 1930s, in the burgeoning Art Colony of St. Ives in Cornwall, living alongside the Gypsies of the New Forest, retreating to the Isle of Wight after his book, The Dark Monarch was banned, and finally, after much heart ache, to the Dorset countryside.
