A Short Walk Through Bradford. A Journey in Monoprints. This is a selection of mono prints from the recently published book of the same name. As Wendy Frith asks in her introduction "who would want to walk through Bradford let alone make art about it?" Well this book of images give an answer of sorts.

         A SHORT WALK THROUGH BRADFORD

By Martin Hearne 

With an introduction by Wendy Frith

A 60 page A5 soft-back with 50 illustrations based on Bradford City in an edition of 300. All copies numbered and signed.

This is a book about a walk through Bradford. “Why on earth would anybody want to walk through Bradford, let alone produce art about it???” asks Wendy Firth in her introduction. Well the 50 illustrations that follow give an answer of sorts, without reaching a conclusive interpretation. It’s a view that asks as many questions as it answers and one that shows with a critical eye the myriad relationships that occur between the artist, the city and what is represented.

The book is available from:
