Since first revitalising figurative sculpture in the late 1990s with his exquisitely crafted realism, Ron Mueck (born Melbourne in 1958; lives and works in England) continues his profound observation of human experiences and emotions. Ron Mueck: Encounter presents sculptures from across the globe, brought together for the artist's first significant solo exhibition on home soil in over a decade - and the first in Sydney since 2003. Mueck's captivating figures, scaled from the minute to the monumental, embody themes such as birth and death, alienation and togetherness, tenderly inviting us to explore our relationship with the world.
This illustrated publication on Mueck explores the evolution of his art practice and celebrates the development of a major new work, Havoc 2025. The book features an introductory essay by the curator Jackie Dunn along with detailed extracts on 15 artworks. A selection of intimate images by French photographer Gautier Deblonde document the development of Havoc and the artist's studio in the Isle of Wight.
Published in association with the solo exhibition Ron Mueck: Encounter, a Sydney-exclusive at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
