Shaping the world. Sculpture from prehistory to now.
11 2020, (22,61 x 28,96 cm), 392 pp. English text, numerous ills., hardcover.
¶ In this wide-ranging, thought-provoking and sometimes provocative new book, leading sculptor Antony Gormley, informed and energised by a lifetime of making, and art critic and historian Martin Gayford, explore sculpture as a transnational art form with its own compelling history. The authors' lively conversations and explorations make unexpected connections across time and media. Sculpture has been practised by every culture throughout the world and stretches back into our distant past. The first surviving shaped stones may even predate the advent of language. Evidently, the desire to carve, mould, bend, chip away, weld, suspend, balance - to transform a vast array of materials and light into new shapes and forms - runs deep in our psyche and is a fundamental part of our human journey and need for expression. With more than 300 spectacular illustrations, Shaping the World juxtaposes a rich variety of works - from the famous Lowenmensch or Lion Man, c. 35,000 BCE to Michelangelo's luminous Pietà in Rome, the Terracotta Warriors in China to Rodin's The Kiss, Marcel Duchamp's ready-mades, Olafur Eliasson's extraordinary Weather Project and Kara Walker's Fons Americanus, and Tomas Saraceno's ongoing Aerocene project, as well as examples of Gormley's own work.

The Master of Elsloo. From lonely hand to Collection of Masters.
02-2019, (21 x 26 cm) , 192 pp. English text, 180 colour ills., hardcover.
¶ During the Middle Ages there was a vibrant wooden sculpture industry in what is now known as the Meuse-Rhine region. Unfortunately, in most cases we do not know who commissioned the sculptures or who made them. The artists responsible have therefore been given improvised names, the most famous of which is the 'Master of Elsloo'. In recent years several studies have examined the sculptures attributed to this master. Nevertheless, his identity remains shrouded in mystery. This book presents a representative picture of the 'Master of Elsloo', bringing together more than fifty isolated sculptures to form a new collection.

¶ Aan het einde van de middeleeuwen bestond in het huidige Maas-Rijngebied een levendige productie van houtsculptuur. Helaas is meestal onbekend wie deze beelden besteld of gemaakt heeft. Om toch enig houvast te krijgen werden deze beeldhouwers van een 'noodnaam' voorzien, en veruit de bekendste daarvan is de zogenaamde 'Meester van Elsloo'. De afgelopen jaren zijn diverse onderzoeken verricht naar de aan deze meester toegeschreven beelden. Ondanks dat blijft zijn identiteit in nevelen gehuld. Dit boek schetst een representatief beeld van de 'Meester van Elsloo' en brengt meer dan vijftig eenlingen samen tot een nieuwe verzameling houtsculpturen.
