Description

Go behind the scenes of Phyllida Barlow’s extraordinary work in this essential guide to her practice, the first volume in a new series from Hauser & Wirth Publishers.

Phyllida Barlow is renowned for her transformative approach to sculpture, creating restless, invented forms that challenged audiences into a new relationship with the sculptural object, the gallery environment, and the world beyond. In this generously illustrated and accessible guide to Barlow’s life and work, curator Frances Morris explores the development of Barlow’s work and the behind-the-scenes of her process: the making, unmaking, and remaking, chance, mishaps, and changes of mind through which the artist produced her pioneering works of art. Combining Morris’s expert insights with a clear timeline of Barlow’s life and career and never-before-seen archival images and details, In the Studio: Phyllida Barlow is an excellent resource for both those new to and familiar with Barlow’s ground breaking work.
