Examples of Oil Paintings in publications

I want to present the creative report in the form of a fold-out poster (as seen in the sketch below) or in the form of a publication.



Some research into the layout of oil paintings in publications:

Adrien Ghenie - Shadow of a Dream 

The paintings are presented on full spread across in page in the first half of the book, creating a flowing motion to the book. Almost making it feel like one painting. Could present Dangoors paintings in this format to communicate i=his distinctive style of an oil painting.




The second half of the book is presented in a more generic 'exhibition' styled pamphlet layout. Makes the imagery clearer to see, but less interesting. 




Kokoschka - Great Modern Masters 


Probably the most interesting page, layout-wise, the spacing fo imagery (top) and type (bottom) draw you into the page where - the type is also similar to 'rugged' aesthetic of some of Ruaben Dangoors lettering in is paintings.

The standard layout used throughout the publication - not very interesting. 



Experimental Layout - Ian Noble & Russell Bestley 

Double page spreads?
