Commentaries for Andrew Cranston Pocket Book, published by 5b, April 2024 available here: galerie5b.net/andrew-cranston
 "As with the original titles of the Fontana Pocket Library of Great Art series to which the Klee book belongs, the object of this publication is to introduce the work of Andrew Cranston to the general reader at a price and in a format suitable to their pocket.Each painting is presented alongside an accompanying interpretation by Liza Dimbleby—impressionistic passages of thoughtful wonder, imbued with formal curiosity and guided by years of friendship and conversation with the artist."
