Accompanying a major retrospective at Tate Britain, the National Gallery of Art, Washington, and the Saint Louis Art Museum, this book explores a range of themes in Rachel Whiteread's remarkable practice, from childhood memory to the horrors of the Holocaust. Rachel Whiteread is known for her psychologically charged works that use negative space to conjure feelings of isolation, domesticity, alienation, and personal and public history. This book showcases all of Whiteread's major works over the past thirty years, from her early Ghost--in which she virtually turned a small London flat inside out--to her recent Cabin--a similarly constructed concrete cabin on New York City's Governor's Island. Essays explore a range of themes in Whiteread's practice, from the personal to the public. Beautifully designed and filled with full-color illustrations of the artist's works, this is a comprehensive overview of an artist who has single-handedly expanded the boundaries of contemporary sculpture.

Seller's Description:
VG. Color-illustrated boards with white lettering. 237 pp. Color and BW illustrations. "Rachel Whiteread (British, born 1963) creates uncanny, quietly powerful works that have redefined the possibilities for sculpture in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using industrial materials (plaster, concrete, resin, rubber and metal), she has cast the interiors and undersides of objects and architectural spaces for over three decades. Exploring every scale, Whiteread stakes out new spaces between positive and negative, public and private, and manufactured and handmade with concision, intelligence and beauty. This book, which documents the first comprehensive survey of Whiteread's work, presents the breadth of her practice, from sculpture to drawing and photography, bringing together her earliest objects with new works that have not been seen before...This volume features new scholarship on Whiteread, tracing the development of her works from the late 1980s to 2017. It enriches our understanding of an artist who has marked the past and moved it forward, detailing the way the everyday continues to change in our own time."
