Keith Cunningham: Dancers

Intense yet delicate, Cunningham’s rarely seen drawings of dancers are vividly reproduced in this lush, large-format monograph

By the 1980s, Australian-born artist Keith Cunningham (1929-2014), who lived and worked in London for most of his life, had shifted away from his large, rough paintings and began creating vibrant hand-drawn works, including the 327 works featured here, depicting female dancers in the throes of dynamic, frenzied performances.
