{"product_id":"francis-bacon-man-and-beast","title":"Francis Bacon: Man and Beast","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhere does human behaviour end and animal instinct begin? Francis Bacon: Man and Beast approaches that question through the painter’s fascination with animals, examining the uneasy closeness between human and non-human bodies in his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished by the Royal Academy of Arts, the book brings together expert essays on Bacon’s dogs, horses, bulls and vulnerable human figures. It also examines sources including wildlife photography and Eadweard Muybridge’s motion studies. These connections help explain the role of movement, tension and instinct in paintings that can feel at once intimate and threatening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 160-page hardback offers a focused perspective on Bacon, making it particularly useful for readers who want to explore a sustained theme within his work. It will appeal to anyone interested in distorted figuration, psychological intensity and the expressive possibilities of the body. The contributors’ different approaches provide context for looking beyond shock towards the ideas and observations behind the imagery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-family:inherit;font-size:1.1em;font-weight:500;\"\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthor \/ contributors: Michael Peppiatt, Stephen F.
