With unprecedented access not only to the archives but to the working studio and to the artist himself, Martin Caiger-Smith examines the relationship between Gormley's life and art, and identifies the singular and obsessional vision that ties together a vast canon of work in an extraordinary range of media and materials. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBest known for the major public works that most visibly represent his rigorous and innovative approach to sculpture, Gormley is a prolific and intellectual artist who has renegotiated the tension between the individual and the universal. Drawing on images that range from childhood snapshots to photographs of his most recent gallery installations, this book traces the evolution of Gormley's work, from the drawings he makes every day in the studio, through the constantly evolving process of casting his own body in various forms, to the ultimate expression of his ideas in such masterpieces as the colossal Angel of the North or the scattered figures of Another Place. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIllustrated with hundreds of images that explore the true scale and impact of Gormley's work--many never published before--complemented with Caiger-Smith's critical narrative, this book is a comprehensive survey of a truly monumental career.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMartin Caiger-Smith\u003c\/b\u003e is Head of the MA Curating the Art Museum program at the Courtauld Institute in London.
