About This Item
Steidl Gerhard Verlag 2016 2016. Hardcover, 224 pages, English, 270 x 225 mm, book in new state, with dustjacket, . ISBN 9783958292369. Richard Deacon is one of the most important sculptors of his generation. His sculptures fascinate with their formal power and the craftsmanship with which they are made. In addition to large-scale works - not infrequently intended for public presentation - Deacon also created sculptures in a small format over the course of his four-decade career. The range of materials used is considerable: plywood and metal are used as well as plastic, leather or clay. There are usually only a few basic elements that make up the complex, intertwined structures. For the first time, one aspect of Deacon's work is at the center of an exhibition that was hardly ever seen in public before. The selection of exhibits reflects the dual function that drawing has for Deacon - showing design drawings that contributed to the mental clarification in the creation process of a particular sculpture, as well as autonomous drawings. Added to this are graphic prints - an area in Deacon's work that has become more important, especially in recent years. What repeatedly connects Deacon's work on paper with his sculptural works is the fundamental examination of the interaction between construction and free form, surface and space. Exhibition and monograph provide for the first time a representative overview of drawing and print graphics Deacons from its beginnings to the recent time on the basis of more than one hundred works. Exhibition: 26th August to 13th November 2016
