- The research is of significant scope, taking in six artists across a twenty-five year period. It draws on significant primary research and offers original readings of the work of six post-war artists and traces new connections and links in British art history. It traces the shifting categories of masculinity and home across its focus period, giving sustained scholarly emphasis to their developments and changes. It speaks to wider disciplines - particularly history, geography, and the social sciences - and argues for the importance of art as a means of understanding the experience of home, in both historical and contemporary contexts.
