ART (IRISH LIBRARY COLLECTION)

Francis Bacon - A terrible beauty by Barbara Dawson and Martin Harrison

Published by Steidl 2009

This is the catalogue for the current show at Dublin City Gallery The Hugh lane. It is a remarkable insight into his work. One of the most striking parts of the show are his destroyed canvas’ - works of art in themselves with holes ripped or cut out of them.
