Book Synopsis
An expansive view of Gormley's work, including new perspectives on its engagement with public space and its philosophical underpinnings
Published with Nasher Sculpture Center.
Spanning the breadth of his career, from the late 1970s to the present day, this monograph surveys the development and evolution of British artist Antony Gormley's (born 1950) sculpture practice. Employing a wide-ranging use of organic, industrial and elemental materials over the years--including iron, steel, hand-beaten lead, seawater and clay--Gormley's kinetic sculptures interrogate the human body's relationship to space. Survey presents a chronology of 60 large-scale and commissioned projects exhibited across the world, as well as a new public project in which the artist affixed open-form sculptures on top of buildings surrounding the Nasher Sculpture Center. It also includes new scholarly essays on the artist's work by philosopher Thomas Nail and independent art historian and writer Amanda Gluibizzi, as well as an interview with the artist conducted by curator Jed Morse.
