Michael craig-martin: present sense

R$ 184,90

Sinopse

Upon returning to the UK after studying in the US, the Irish-born artist Michael Craig-Martin (born 1941) became a key figure in British conceptual art and an influential educator, linked in particular to the generation of Young British Artists, including Damien Hirst and Gary Hume. Craig-Martin's works transform recognizable objects―such as sneakers, headphones, watches and, most recently, modernist buildings―with bold color and simplified lines. He cites his "rationalism" as the root of his art. Craig-Martin is the latest subject of a three-year curatorial partnership between the Windsor Gallery, Florida, and the Royal Academy of Arts, London, initiated to celebrate the latter's 250th anniversary. This lively book reproduces a selection of his paintings, prints and sculptures, with an essay by the art critic Ben Luke and an exclusive interview between Tim Marlow and the artist.
