The independent voice of the visual arts.
Czech-born Canadian artist Jana Sterbak (b. 1955) has shown extensively and internationally, and uses diverse media -- sculptures, installations, photography, and video documentation of her performance -- to explore the relationship between the psychological and physical self. This book documents Sterbak's ingenious work (one piece is a bed made of bread, in another the artist morphs into a moth), and is an important testament to her growing importance.

In its exhilarating rebound into three dimensions, color is asserting itself with a forcefulness not seen since the 1960s. The sculptures in Chromaform: Color in Sculpture are not merely colored but are of and about color as much as they are about materials and space, the more traditional concerns of sculptors. Whether applied, stained, cast, or found, color plays an essential role in all this work, which cares as much for the decorative and sexual as it does for the formal potential of color. Sculpture in the 1990s, as the artists seen here make evident, embraces the perceptual union of color and form. Addressing the formal, conceptual, and metaphorical functions of color in sculpture, the works in this book reveal diverse results, limitless possibilities, and a shift toward a more interdisciplinary art.
