Since the 1960s Michael Craig-Martin has developed a vocabulary of
imagery based on common, everyday items. 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 Fork and Knife (green and
purple) (2019) to the distinctly contemporary, as in Headphones
(magenta) (2019). This 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.
