Reviews

'Painting is a vital part of the art world - the medium continues to be widely celebrated. Vitamin P2 [...] is a colossal overview of 115 painters from 30 countries. ... A refreshing aspect of this publication is the choice to not only include long established painters, but also to include artists who have received critical acclaim within the past give years. ... This book explores recent practice with acumen ... a collection cantered on the idea of new beginnings, and for that reason offers readers a chance to engage in the discourse.' Shirley Stevenson, Aesthetica, December 2011
