Sarah Lucas is an internationally celebrated artist known for the
provocative use of materials and imagery in her work. Incorporating
ordinary objects in unexpected ways, she has consistently
challenged our understandings of sex, class and gender over the
last four decades. Looking beyond the generation of 1990s Young
British Artists during which Lucas emerged, this visually stunning
exhibition book invites the public to marvel at the diversity of
her work across sculpture, installation and photography. Breaking
boundaries with her bawdy humour and bold daring, Lucas shows us
the whole spectrum of what it truly means to be human.
This handbook provides the definitive guide to commissioning
contemporary art. Every step and stage is revealed and demystified
- from the initial invitation to an artist to the financing of a
project, from the drafting of contracts to the final siting and
installation of works, from the care and preservation of
commissioned pieces to their interpretation and publicity.
Combining theoretical and conceptual considerations with practical
ones, Buck and McClean's lively and instructive text is
supplemented with copious quotations and insights from some of the
best-known artists, curators, commissioners and museum directors of
today, including Nicholas Serota, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Jeff Koons,
Vito Acconci, Mark Wallinger, Anish Kapoor, RoseLee Goldberg,
Thomas Krens, Anne Pasternak, Barbara Gladstone, Mera Rubell, and
Olafur Eliasson, to provide a detailed and informed how-to guide to
the commissioning process.

A feast of colour and texture, Chila Burman's first major monograph
celebrates one of Britain's most exciting contemporary artists and
her extraordinary body of work from across four decades. Chila
Burman is a British Asian artist known for her radical feminist
practice, her joyful neon light installations and her use of
kaleidoscopic colours. Since the mid 1980s her work has explored
the experiences and aesthetics of Asian femininity and female
empowerment, and the impact of imperialism, colonialism, race and
class. Informed by popular culture, Indian mythology and Bollywood,
fashion and found objects, her work has consistently strived to
challenge stereotypes and to champion equality. This book, the
first major monograph on the artist, will bring together Burman’s
extraordinary body of work from across four decades. Featuring
paintings and installations, photography and prints, video and film
works, and a range of diverse voices, it explores the ideas central
to Burman’s practice, as well as her unique style.
