David Nash's career as one of Britain's best known sculptors has been a profound exploration into the possibilities of form inherent in trees and timber. His sculptures combine a twentieth-century sensibility with an ability to draw out the natural anatomy of different woods.
With an extensive essay by Marina Warner, David Nash: Forms into Time illustrates, in special pages designed by the artist, fourteen themes that have run throughout his work for the last thirty years. Explanatory texts, sketches and photographs taken at all stages of the creative process show familiar pieces such as the Ash Dome, Threshold Column and Wooden Boulder in a new light, as well as exploring recent work from Japan, the United States and Europe. They emphasise the effect of time and the changing seasons on his pieces. The book is an invaluable introduction to Nash's artistic practice illuminating the thought processes and depth of reference which lie behind his work.
