In drawings, paintings, installations, and sculptures, he has probed the relationship between objects and images, perception and reality. This book presents recent large-scale sculptures by the artist, produced with exacting draftsmanship and fabricated in powder-coated steel in vibrant shades. The elegant forms of these works appear like drawings in the air. Each three to four meters tall, they depict items ranging from the timeless--as in \u003ci\u003eFork and Knife (green and purple)\u003c\/i\u003e (2019)--to the distinctly contemporary, as in \u003ci\u003eHeadphones (magenta)\u003c\/i\u003e (2019). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis volume was published to commemorate the first indoor presentation of the artist's sculpture, at Gagosian, London, in 2019. A beautiful plate section documents each of the works in the exhibition, and dynamic installation views highlight the artist's exploration of spatial relationships through the juxtaposition of color. An in-depth conversation with Craig-Martin by Lynn Zelevansky traces his development as an artist, addresses the centrality of drawing to his practice, and illuminates the relationship between the two-dimensional and the three-dimensional in his work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lynn Zelevansky\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0847869083\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780847869084\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gagosian \/ Rizzoli\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 60\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.10h x 8.60w x 0.60d","brand":"Lynn Zelevansky","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":50778811957503,"sku":"9780847869084","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_78465efd-13fc-4da5-a365-47a03fd90986.jpg?v=1792942632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/michael-craig-martin-lynn-zelevansky-9780847869084","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
