Beyond the Town
Beyond the Town addresses the wide audience of visitors coming to Hauser & Wirth Somerset at Durslade Farm in England--once an 18th-century agricultural property, transformed into a 21st-century arts center. A portrait of the people and ideas behind this unique project, it is geared toward both professional and amateur audiences interested in art, architecture and landscape architecture, as well as cooking and gardening. Four essays place Durslade Farm in the wider context of the society and environment of Somerset and beyond. Each essay concentrates on one topic (architecture, gardening, society, art and education) to discuss the richness of this gallery model and to approach and reflect upon it from unexpected points of view. The essays are woven together with a trove of images as well as more personal conversations with the people at the heart of Durslade.

Architect's Choice
The conviction that art must play a prominent role in everyday life has been strongly championed throughout the century, and the redevelopment of Britain after the Second World War provided an unprecedented opportunity for the siting of painting and sculpture in new architectural environments. Jacob Epstein, Victor Pasmore, Phillip King, Barry Flanagan and Eduardo Paolozzi are among the many outstanding artists who have contributed to the astonishing variety of work that enlivens public places. There has been no more avowed exponent of the creative collaboration between artist and architect than Eugene Rosenberg, who commissioned memorable pieces for many Yorke Rosenberg Mardall buildings. It was his fervent wish that achievements in this field should be given their due recognition, and this volume presents his personal choice of the finest examples, on display all over Britain and now brought together for the first time.
