Item Number: 136457 Title: PHYLLIDA BARLOW : Sculpture 1963-2015 Author: Morris, Frances Price: Not Available ISBN: 9783775740111 Description: Stuttgart: Hatje Cantz, 2015. 26cm., hardcover, 240pp., 180 color illus. Exhibition held at The Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh. English text. Summary: British artist Phyllida Barlow (*1944 in Newcastle upon Tyne) has been creating astonishing sculptures and expansive installations for over fifty years. Using simple materials such as plywood, cardboard, fabric, plaster, paint, and plastic, Barlow’s physically impressive and materially insistent sculptures ask questions about our relationship to objects, and about objects’ relationships to us. Slipping between different registers of form and meaning as we try to understand them, her sculptures are like things caught in the process of becoming other things, things we might have seen before or may see in the future. With reproductions of numerous works never seen before, this major monograph of Barlow’s oeuvre presents more than one hundred works, offering an indispensable resource on the practice of this important British sculptor, who continues to be lauded by artists and critics for her work and for her influence on several generations of artists. We regret to inform you that this title is no longer available. P.O. Box 3904, Kingston, New York 12402 US Phone: 845-331-8519 Fax: 845-331-0852 Email: michael@artbooks.com |
