Words from the Arts Council Collection Book

Includes modern masters and senior artists such as Ben Nicholson, Michael Craig-Martin, Gilbert & George and David Hockney, to the YBA generation - Fiona Banner, Willie Doherty, Tracey Emin, Anya Gallaccio and Douglas Gordon. Words from the Arts Council Collection explores some of the ways in which words find their way into art. Written, painted or collaged language has played an important part in the development of contemporary art from the newsprint that structured Cubist collage and the wordplay that delighted the Surrealists to the definitions and instructions that were an integral part of 1970s Conceptual art and the inventive use of language by artists working now. This catalogue, published on the occasion of a major touring exhibition, focuses on the role of language in British art since the 1930s, and explores the huge variety of ways in which artists make use of language - in painting, sculpture, photography, installation, sound and video. Fully-illustrated, and with an essay by Fiona Bradley, Hayward Gallery Exhibitions Curator.Read More
