Brian: Clarke: Architectural Artist is a monograph with essays by art historian Martin Harrison, architectural historian Kenneth Powell and a personal essay on painting, 'Drawing on Architecture', by Brian Clarke. Publisher Academy Editions writes:

‘Starting with his first commissions in the early 70s, the artistic output of Brian Clarke has been extraordinary in its creative range, scope of projects, and international appeal. His knowledge of drawings, paintings, gilding, mosaic, calligraphy, heraldry, tapestries and stained glass has led him to see various concepts of artistic mediums as essential and integrated parts of a unified architectural structure. Applying his many talents to a number of architectural projects, his work includes set designs for the ballet and concerts, and his designs can be seen around the world in England, Germany, Spain, France, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United States. […] This book presents a pictorial overview of these and other works by Brian Clarke.’
