Item Number: 126791 Title: HELEN CHADWICK : Constructing Identities Between Art and Architecture Author: Walker, Stephen Price: Not Available ISBN: 9781780760070 Description: London: I.B. Tauris, 2013. 24cm., pbk., 256pp. illus. Summary : Shifting from early institutional and architectural critique to personal, poetic installations, large format photography projects and sculptures, British artist Helen Chadwick produced a wide-ranging body of work in an assortment of media. In this book, Stephen Walker looks beyond the apparent variety of this work and identifies a consistent range of issues and enduring interests. Critical of the impact that limiting political, philosophical and scientific constructions have on identity, Chadwick's art can offer insights into a number of major, enduring questions: the relationship between body and space, self and world; between art and science; between artifice and nature; between theory and practice, the creative self and the creative process. Walker combines a close reading of Chadwick's notebooks and research with a broader investigation into their ongoing relevance for artistic and architectural work today.
