This 1991 exhibition catalogue, published by the Anthony d'Offay Gallery in London, presents a curated survey of Hamilton's work, documenting the artist's restless intellectual engagement with mass media, consumerism, and the politics of image-making — themes he pursued with unrelenting rigour across painting, printmaking, and collage.\n\nHamilton's practice, rooted in a deep admiration for Marcel Duchamp and a sharp critique of postwar consumer society, argues through every canvas and print that art and advertising are not merely parallel languages but intimately entangled ones. His meticulous, almost clinical technique — married to a sardonic wit — produced works of startling cultural insight that continue to resonate decades after their creation. For collectors, scholars, and admirers of British modernism, this volume stands as an essential document of one of the most cerebrally daring careers in contemporary art history — leaving one to wonder precisely where Hamilton's art ends and the world it mirrors begins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203107332315,"sku":"2026100009502-SECONDHAND","price":40.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/75282266-62d1-4203-9ec7-91136b920c86.png?v=1788143867","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009502-secondhand-richard-hamilton","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
