England on Fire is a visual journey through Albion\u2019s psychic landscape. Curated by Stephen and with texts by Mat Osman, the book explores English Art, but not as you know it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

‘England on Fire is a visual journey through Albion’s psychic landscape,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is a book, in part, about English art. Two words that together strike fear into all but the most backward looking, flag-shagging hearts, But England on Fire is a book about English art that is like no other, starting where other books end. In the wild corners and the forgotten lanes. Among the dispossessed, the forgotten and the excluded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is an Albion unhinged, a haunted, wild, anarchic realm, where magic and rebellion are the dark undercurrents that fuel the nation\u2019s collective imagination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In place of a the usual tired rogues\u2019 gallery of Lords and Ladies; of endless panoramas of hedgerows, stiles and spires; of bloodless recreations of brutal history and dark, disquieting myth; of country-house and bonnet porn; of an endless parade of forelock-tugging yeomen and comely milkmaids; of cherubic chimney sweeps and factory girls, of urchins and under-butlers; of rich men in their castles and poor men at their gates, England on Fire presents a portrait of Albion that is radical , inclusive, riotous and untamed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The book is a kaleidoscopic fantasia of mayhem and magic, protest and provocation, rural nightmares and urban utopias, terminal decline and future dreaming, the shock of the old and the thrill of the new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An antidote to post -imperialist pessimism, nostalgia and navel-gazing, England on Fire offers a vision of a new land \u2013 an enchanted, enchanting, maddening, quickening, furious, funny and fabulous England. An England on fire \u2026\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
