Richard Deacon: Selected Writings

0/5 ( ratings)

Turner Prize-winning sculptor Richard Deacon began making abstract sheet metal and laminated wood sculptures in 1980, later incorporating vinyl and plywood."I am a fabricator, not a carver or a modeler," he says. "In this sense manufacturing or building skills are of most interest to me. I begin by shaping stuff ... and continue by developing the form." Published in Richter's handsome series of sculptors' writings, this volume gathers texts written between 1970 and 2012, including statements and accounts of works made, walks taken, reflections on materials, notes on public projects, a dialogue with curator Lynn Cooke, an interview with artist Ian McKeever and essays on a variety of subjects from television and Japanese films to artists and writers as diverse as Nicolas Poussin, Jacqui Poncelet, Rainer Maria Rilke, Toni Grand, Donald Judd and Anish Kapoor.
