description: Though best known for his role at the forefront of the New Sculpture movement, C. J. Allen also spent more than thirty years as a respected and influential teacher at the University of Liverpool and the Liverpool City School of Art. His dual roles as sculptor and teacher enabled him to establish and nurture a tradition of sculptural practice in Liverpool that continues to this day.C. J. Allen 1862-1956 is the richly illustrated catalog to the first-ever retrospective of Allen's work. Considering everything from Allen's best-known piece, Liverpool's Victoria Monument, to his numerous smaller commissions, the essays in this volume reveal the life, work, and legacy of a master sculptor.
