For six decades, sculptor Bruce Beasley has worked in a range of media to build complex, resonant arrangements from simple shapes that communicate the primacy of form and express the complexity of human emotion. This richly illustrated volume, published to accompany a major retrospective at Grounds For Sculpture, in Hamilton, New Jersey, includes his cast aluminium works of the 1970s, cast acrylic sculptures of the 1970s and 1980s, and stainless steel and bronze works of the 1990s to the present day. With stunning photography and insightful essays, this elegantly designed book celebrates the breadth of the pioneering artist's 60-years of creating, from his early iron works, featured in the influential exhibition The Art of Assemblage (1961) at the Museum of Modern Art, to his latest collages on canvas, and will serve as the definitive treatment of Beasley's distinguished career.
