Anthony Caro (Art Catalogue)
by Tate (Paperback)

Anthony Caro (b. 1924) is widely regarded as Britain's greatest living sculptor and has enjoyed an international reputation since the early 1960s. Although best known for his work in steel, Caro has also worked in bronze, wood, lead, ceramics, and paper, on both large and intimate scales. Since the 1980s, the range of Caro's work has increased, encompassing "sculpitecture" (sculpture that the viewer can enter); large-scale works that allude to classical architecture; and sculptures that respond to earlier works by such masters as Rubens, Manet, and Matisse. This extensively illustrated book includes an overview of Caro's career by Paul Moorhouse, as well as critical essays by Michael Fried and Dave Hickey. This publication accompanies a major retrospective exhibition of Caro's work opening at Tate Britain in January 2005 and is the most up-to-date survey of Caro's work in print. AUTHOR BIO: Paul Moorhouse is a Tate curator. Michael Fried is a professor of humanities at Johns ...

Earth, Sky, and Sculpture
by Storm King Art Center (Paperback)

Just 60 miles north of New York City, set in a beautiful valley of the Hudson Highlands, are 500 acres of open fields, intimate woodlands, and rolling hills that form an outdoor museum unequaled anywhere in the world. The Storm King Art Center in Mountainville, New York, is a unique setting for modern sculpture. The natural beauty of the landscape - continually enhanced, sculpted, and nurtured - is home to an ever-evolving collection of important works of modern art. Here the sculpture of such modern masters as Magdalena Abakanowicz, Alexander Calder, Mark di Suvero, Andy Goldsworthy, Alexander Liberman, Henry Moore, Louise Nevelson, Isamu Noguchi, George Rickey, Richard Serra, David Smith, Kenneth Snelson, and Ursula von Rydingsvard find surroundings equal to their heroic presence. "Earth, Sky, and Sculpture" is at once a glorious celebration of natural beauty and a wide-ranging survey of the impressive international developments in sculpture since the advent of Modernism.

Anthony Caro: Barbarians
by Mitchell-Innes & Nash (Hardcover) (Release Date: 2003-07-02)

Description: "Through the ages," recounts Britain's foremost sculptor, Anthony Caro, "civilizations have often been subjected to unexpected assaults from warrior tribes. This happened when the Tartars overran Asia and the Huns and Goths plundered Rome. My Barbarians allude to this history." Comprised of six life-size figures on horseback and one female figure in a chariot, Caro's recently-completed sculpture evokes a timeless, mythic character. Made of wood, leather, steel and ceramic elements, The Barbarians marks a new departure in the artist's distinguished career.
