Objects The Great Women Sculptors, Phaidon

£49.95

The third book on The Wick’s reading list this week is The Great Women Sculptors, the latest in a series of volumes exploring the women who have shaped art history in different mediums. We have been particularly excited about the arrival of this one, as women have been underrepresented in sculpture yet have contributed some of the most exciting and innovative works. This weighty hardback is the proof: more than 300 artists from 60 countries, spanning 500 years, from the very familiar (Barbara Hepworth, Yayoi Kusama, Phyllida Barlow and Simone Leigh, to name but a few) to young rising stars (our favourite discovery is Hannah Levy, who is currently showing at MASSIMODECARLO London). An inquisitive, expansive and visually stunning survey we can’t wait to dive into. Available for pre-order now.
