Nicolaus Widerberg: Past in the Future (bok)

Antall sider:96

Published to coincide with the artist’s exhibition celebrating the opening of Kings Place Gallery, London in 2008, Past in Future draws together an outstanding body of bronze, granite, marble and glass sculpture by an artist whose modesty belies his current status as one of the most gifted artists of his generation working in Norway today. William Varley’s rapport with Widerberg’s work is apparent in his engrossing and authoritative essay in which he describes the artist’s sculpture as “beings in a state of suspended animation; hence their timelessness. As in fairy tales, if you kissed them they would wake, breathe, move and talk.”
