This book, the first substantial monograph on Burden in twenty years, gives a complete overview of his art, illuminated by search ..."
"A monumental installation from the American artist known for her fusion of art and scienceThis book accompanies New York–based artist Christine Corday's (born 1970) site-specific installation at CAM St. Louis. Corday's 12 monumental sculptures―made from 10,000 pounds of compressed elemental metal―are arranged throughout the gallery in constellations, exhibited alongside a painting series."
"Los Angeles-based Thomas Houseago (born 1972) draws reference to a multitude of styles such as Classicism, Cubism and Futurism for his intentionally clumsy forms, which are made out of plaster and found materials instead of the traditional bronze or marble. The large-scale structures included in this monograph thus appear incongruously flimsy for their size."

"Ordinary Things brings a sculptural and scholarly approach to the work of Sarah Lucas, underlining her status as one of the most significant British artists.Lucas' sculptures are made of and from the human body, and from the ordinary things that surround us.

"Alberto Giacometti is one of the few artists of the last century whose work is almost more recognisable than his name. His distinctive elongated figures are inescapably associated with the post-war climate of existentialist despair. However, the story of Giacometti's evolution, from his first professional works of art through his surrealist compositions, to the emergence of his mature style has rarely been explored fully and in depth. T ..."
