Description: "William Tucker (born 1935) is a British-born sculptor who moved to North America in 1976 and became an American citizen in 1986. This is the first major monograph on his work, and includes a complete catalogue of his sculpture to date." "Joy Sleeman's text situates the entirety of Tucker's sculptural enterprise in a broad interpretive framework and explores its wider implications for reconsidering the recent history, theory and practice of sculpture. The book has been compiled in close collaboration with the artist, whose comments are included in the fully illustrated catalogue of sculpture. It will be essential reading for artists, art historians, curators, dealers and all those with an interest in the recent history and current practice of sculpture."--Jacket.
