About this title

Reviews

This book is the documentation to the most important exhibition on recent British sculpture since a seminal show at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in 1981. Charles Harrison's introductory essay is a concise survey of mid-century trends and influential artists. An essay by Lynne Cooke shifts the focus to six featured "masters": Tony Cragg, Richard Deacon, Barry Flanagan, Richard Long, David Nash, and Bill Woodrow. Each artist is treated to his own essay, with bibliographic notes and plentiful illustrations. A useful artist chronology concludes the work. The plates are not all as evocative as they could be, but together they give a real sense of the subject matter. The book fills a need in the literature of contemporary British art. Paula A.

Store Description

BookLovers of Bath is based in the rural idyll of Peasedown St. John in Somerset (God's Own Country) in the south west of England and actually very nearly in Bath. After 20 years of being ?internet only? I have now opened a shop, Fact or Fable, in the premises of our now-closed Post Office. With over 10,000 books in my, recently shrunken, storage unit and another 5,000 or so in the shop I run an old-fashioned book business with every book listed, graded, picked, packed and posted by my own fair hand? abetted by my Jack Russells who are really, not, helpful.
