Ron Mueck
"This book was published to accompany an exhibition at the National Gallery, London, 19 March-22 June 2003"--T.p. verso.
Ron Mueck
Ron Mueck, the hyperrealist sculptor, learned his craft making models and puppets for television and movies. He was nearly 40 when his work came to the attention of Charles Saatchi. At Saatchi's urging, he began to show his sculptures in gallery and museum contexts in the late 1990s. They met with astonishment and praise, particularly Dead Dad, a silicon and mixed-media model of Mueck's father's body, perfectly proportioned but less than four feet long, which made its debut at the highly publicized Sensation show. The human presence and perfection of detail in Mueck's work, the realism and mysterious, transfigured quality of his figures, which stems in part from his extravagant liberties with scale, excited immediate international attention. Since then, the artist's fame has increased steadily with each new work. This second, expanded edition of the monograph of record updates the only comprehensive publication on Mueck's work. Bastian's catalogue raisonne lists all of his works to date.

On the occasion of the exhibition of artist Ron Mueck in June 2023, the Fondation Cartier publishes an expanded edition of the comprehensive reference book first published in 2013, covering Mueck's thirty-year career and presenting all his sculptures through numerous photographs and unpublished documents. Artist's notes, studio shots, preparatory drawings and photographs of models allow the reader to discover Mueck's creative process and understand the intimacy of his work. Contributions from art specialists Justin Paton, Robert Rosenblum and Robert Storr, and from philosopher and essayist Peter Sloterdijk explore the major themes underlying his art.

Documents the making of sculpture Boy in 1999, and its exhibition at the Millennium Dome in 2000 and Venice Biennale 2001.
Ron Mueck.
Mueck's human figures are always technically perfect, absolutely realistic, deliberately undersized or oversized. He first models them in clay and then takes a hollow cast of which he fills with silicone or fibreglass. This catalogue of his work accompanies an exhibition in Berlin in 2003.

Lens-based sculpture
The exhibition Lens Based Sculpture explores contemporary sculpture's relationship and indebtedness to photography and the ways in which photography has transformed sculpture as a medium. With over 200 displayed works by more than 70 international artists, Lens Based Sculpture develops the antiquated argument over the nature of these two mediums while bending the boundaries of their relationship to each other through an innovative curation by Bogomir Ecker, Raimund Kummer, Friedemann Malsch, and Herbert Molderings. The exhibition offers unique and interactive perspectives that challenge conceptions of depth, spatial-limits, and relational approaches to objects and methods of display.
