LOT 6029 Seller's Estimate: USD 500 - 650 Title: Art for Life: The Story of Peggy Angus Author: Carolyn Trant Publisher: Incline Press City: Oldham, England Year: 2004 Printing Information: Limited Edition Binding Style: Hardcover Number of Volumes: 2 Full Set: Yes Width: 10.5" Height: 14.25" Book Details: The author was one of Peggy Angus' students. "The title of our book, Art for Life, is taken from a prospectus she prepared advertising her Community Art School at the Camden Studio Workshops in the 1970s and sums up Peggy's belief that art was as much about birthday cakes and bonfire celebrations as it was about museums. As those who knew her will appreciate, Peggy's output is much too large to be contained between the covers of a simple book. The pages are filled with photos, reproductions and prints. The book needs to be specially housed. In consultation with Stephen Conway, a slip case has been devised to hold the book and a specially-designed portfolio. This will contain four facsimile sketchbooks and a CD of Peggy taken from the tapes Carolyn made while working on the book with her. On the CD are a few of her stories of life in the 1940s, opening [with], of course, Peggy singing Raggle Taggle Gypsy O."
