Lonnie Holley (born 1950), acclaimed by The New York Times as "the Insider's Outsider," is best known for his assemblage sculptures incorporating natural and man-made materials, often cast off or discarded; he has recently also begun to make music, through the Dust-to-Digital label. Legendary for his environmental assemblage that spread over two acres of his property in Birmingham, Alabama--now destroyed--Holley scavenges and repurposes found objects in the service of a personal philosophy of renewal and rejuvenation. This is the first monograph on Holley's work in more than a decade. Illustrated with reproductions of more than 70 of Holley's sculptures, it provides a comprehensive overview of Holley's art, life and philosophy, with essays by Mark Sloan, Leslie Umberger, Bernard L. Herman and an "as-told-to" autobiography recorded by noted oral historian Theodore Rosengarten.
