Description
Geoffrey Clarke: A Sculptor's Materials is a comprehensive monograph that explores the diverse artistic practice of this renowned sculptor. Initially trained in stained glass, Clarke developed an innovative casting technique using aluminium and established his own foundry, securing commissions from prominent institutions such as banks, offices, universities, and cathedrals. Throughout his career, Clarke demonstrated remarkable versatility, creating works in a range of mediums including sculpture, jewellery, textiles, land art, and medals. Many of these pieces, now finding new audiences, have been recognised for their significance, with Spirit of Electricity (1958-61) and Spiral Nebula (1962) listed Grade II by Historic England. This book provides an in-depth look at Clarke's artistic practice, shedding light on his innovative techniques and the diverse range of commissions he received.
