Born in London, he spent much of his career in Plymouth, where he became a prominent figure associated with the "School of Plymouth." Lenkiewicz's work often focused on the marginalized and overlooked members of society, including the homeless, elderly, and individuals on the fringes of mainstream culture. One of his notable projects was the "Vagrancy Project," where he lived among the homeless to gain insight into their lives and create art inspired by those experiences. Lenkiewicz was also interested in themes related to death, producing works that explored the human condition and mortality. ; 32 x 31.5 x 2 cms; 180 pages. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket .
