Our Friend, Art: A Family Mosaic

For Daisy Rockwell, 'our friend, Art', as her father called it, was everywhere. This is a portrait of an extraordinary family of artists - her parents, and her grandfather, Norman Rockwell - and what it was like to grow up both in, and out, of their shadows. Drawing on their stories and those of her own life as an artist-writer, on photographs and paintings, from the polished and famous to the private and scribbled, she assembles a glittering mosaic of memories and images. Here are tales of loves, deaths and afterlives and, above all, of the constant need to create; to see the world differently.Deeply personal, and aglow with light and colour, this is a book about remaking life through art, and about what it means to tell our stories.
