An extensive monograph surveying the recent major works of artist Richard Wright. This fully illustrated publication presents Wright's exquisite paintings and drawings. Wright states "I wanted to get to the idea without the object getting in the way." This attitude led to paintings of extraordinary skill made directly onto the wall that do away with the physicality of the canvas. This publication records these special transient events where paintings have appeared, and for the most part, no longer exist. Winner of the prestigious Turner Prize (2009), Wright's work was praised by the judges for its "profound originality and beauty."

Seller's Description:
(WRIGHT, RICHARD). Ferguson, Russell, John Lowden & Sarah Lowndes. RICHARD WRIGHT. London: Gagosian Gallery & Rizzoli International Publications, 2009. First Edition. 4to. Illustrated Boards. Artist Monograph. Fine/No Jacket-As Issued. 160pp, profusely illustrated in color and b&w. Designed by Graphic Thought Facility. With an exhibition checklist. This is the beautifully designed and printed hardbound catalogue published in conjunction with the 2009 Gagosian Gallery London exhibition of work by Richard Wright-the artist's first at the gallery. "Wright utilizes a unique visual and spatial language in which he paints directly onto walls, ceilings, corners and other more liminal spaces of architecture. In doing so, he reasserts the power of incidental details that adorn the edges of our designed world in his response to the individual character of the elected space. Moving beyond the limits of early conceptualism with its stated arbitrariness, Wright paints each of these works himself with almost medieval precision. The artist was pronounced the winner for the 2009 Turner Prize where his work was on view at Tate Britain through 2010". A most handsome copy still in the publisher's shrinkwrap. 0-8478-3504-9 Inventory Number: 020463.
