Ralph Steadman
Steadman first came to fame in the 60s cartooning for Private Eye.
Now he's an internationally recognised artist in the field of drawing, caricature and illustration, often vitriolic, sometimes surprisingly humane. Ralph Steadman 's drawing of himself (an early work) is shown left. The Whole of this edition of Arena is devoted to Steadman's work, soon to be exhibited in a major retrospective in London. We watch him creating, from start to finish, a colour illustration for a children's anti-war story, visit Ms local pub where he caricatures the bemused regulars, and talk to him about his drawing techniques and his most celebrated work - including illustrations for Alice, and impressions of the Patty Hearst trial and the Watergate hearings.
4 In many ways the drawing controls you-it's a dialogue, a kind of boxing match.'
