Fernando Zóbel was a painter, patron and a thinker who wrote with clarity and curiosity about art and the world around him. This volume gathers his writings and recorded conversations, tracing the development of his thought over time. Conceived as a supplement to the exhibition catalogue Fernando Zóbel: Order is Essential, it conveys how his words articulate the concerns that shaped his practice and provides readers with another way to engage with his work.

This is the second title in the National Gallery Singapore Art Writing imprint.
