Publisher's Synopsis

The Cambridge Art Book contains a unique collection of contemporary images of this most beautiful city, from the grand architecture of its historic university to its more intimate corners. Cambridge is a unique place with a very special atmosphere. It combines an internationally-renowned university town with a vibrant street-life amongst stunning medieval architecture. This is an anthology of prints from 50 artists inspired by the beauty and vitality of the city, working in a broad range of contemporary media. In this book, you will find: - Quirky hidden gems such as the dog, officially labelled as a 'cat' to subvert college rules and reality checkpoint (the lamppost that marks the divide between the university and the real world) - Innovative representations of classic tourist sites: King's College, St. John's College, the Corpus Clock and the Backs (including Ely and Grantchester) - Cambridge's train station and old Addenbrooke's hospital transformed into artworks This book will renew memories and inspire visits and revisits to all its haunts.
