De Chirico and the United Kingdom (c.1916-1978) constitutes the first in-depth study
into de Chirico's lifelong relationship with the country. Detailing over 60 years'
worth of activity through c. 550 documents, this publication establishes the fundamental
importance that the UK played in the artist's career with his work appearing in no
less than 85 exhibitions, 49 of which are documented here for the first time. The
recent discovery of extensive correspondence, press reviews and other documentation
has enabled a thorough examination of three solo exhibitions held in London (Alex.
Reid & Lefevre Ltd., 1938, Royal Society of British Artists, 1949, and Wildenstein
Gallery, 1976); successful and failed acquisition bids for de Chirico's artwork in
the public sector, as well as the 1962-1964 controversy involving the Tate's display
of three paintings (on long-term loan from Edward James) that the artist denounced
as fake
