Description
Phyllida Barlow: Frontier presents a comprehensive overview of the British artist's unique oeuvre, from her early works to the present day. Through impressive installation photos and never-before-seen archival material, this publication showcases Barlow's eccentric yet humorous approach to sculpture.
The book explores how Barlow tests boundaries with monumental sculptures that reflect on our relationship with our environment through the use of industrial and everyday materials. Her career is marked by a radical redefinition of contemporary sculpture, and her recent breakthrough has cemented her status as one of Britain's most prominent artists.
Featuring drawings and pioneering sculptures from all phases of Barlow's creative journey, including new works formed from key pieces that have been dismantled and recycled, this publication offers a fascinating insight into the artist's innovative approach to sculpture and installation art.
