Lowry's City: A Painter and His LocaleFew artists are as intimately involved with an area as L.S. Lowry, whose industrial landscapes and townscapes are centered around the cities of Salford and Manchester. Judith Sandling and Mike Leber, who together have curated and managed Salford City's major collection of Lowry's work for many years, have pooled their expertise to create a fascinating record of the ways in which numerous paintings by the artist relate directly to specific locations within the industrial north-west. |
