Synopsis: |
It is hard to understand why relatively little has been written about Brian Wall's contributions to modern sculpture, particularly since he has had such a dramatic impact upon the field, his colleagues, and global audiences. Happily, we now have a brilliant analysis for both professional and introductory readers, which captures splendidly the ambitious spirit and the lyrical creativity of Brian Wall. This is the first major study of his work, and it is long overdue. Stevens' volume is an elegant synthesis of theory and process, combined with a careful explanation of Wall's viewpoint and consistent use of materials. With glorious links that range from painting to poetry, the craft and the values of Brian Wall are presented with a purity and simplicity that mirrors the creative refinement of the sculptural works themselves. With remarkable impact, Wall has repeatedly tested the boundaries of contemporary visual art, with a daring and playful experimentation that juxtaposes architectural patterns with the courageous transformation of aesthetic space.For anyone interested in the broad exploration practised by an artist at the top of his craft, or even someone committed to their own harmonious beauty, this splendid study of Brian Wall will become a treasured volume. |
