{"product_id":"tom-phillips-works-and-texts-tom-phillips-9780500974025","title":"Tom Phillips, Works and Texts","description":"Tom Phillips is a multi-talented artist whose central passion is language and whose genius lies in his ability to generate images that, while concerned with the structure of ideas, also convey a rich coherence of decoration, eloquence, and sensuality. These concerns have led him into opera, ballet, and filmmaking; he is also an accomplished composer and poet, and his achievements in the production of books and prints are renowned worldwide. He inspires strong, almost fanatical enthusiasm among a coterie of devotees. Published to coincide with a touring retrospective exhibition by the Royal Academy, \u003cem\u003eTom Phillips: Works and Texts\u003c\/em\u003e is a discriminating survey of over twenty years of the artist's oeuvre, including some of his very latest pieces. Included are pages from his past books: \u003cem\u003eDante's Inferno\u003c\/em\u003e (Thames \u0026amp; Hudson, 1985) and A \u003cem\u003eHumument\u003c\/em\u003e (Thames \u0026amp; Hudson, 1987). Also reproduced are such representative works as \u003cem\u003eConjectured Images: Mappin Art Gallery, \u003c\/em\u003e a series of paintings that reconstruct an entire art gallery from an old postcard; \u003cem\u003eCurriculum Vitae I-XXII\u003c\/em\u003e; \u003cem\u003eTerminal Grey Paintings\u003c\/em\u003e; and many of his images from \u003cem\u003eA TV Dante\u003c\/em\u003e. Illustrated in color throughout, this is a tribute to a living artist whose work remains as fresh and challenging as when it was first produced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tom Phillips\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0500974020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500974025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/1993\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.80h x 9.06w x 0.94d","brand":"Tom Phillips","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46094091026687,"sku":"9780500974025","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fc9f3a0b-d202-495d-a79a-d2e87fae2d9a.jpg?v=1724843658","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tom-phillips-works-and-texts-tom-phillips-9780500974025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
