Christopher Le Brun
Christopher Le Brun is one of the most influential figures to emerge in British Art in the 1980s. This catalogue containing a selected survey of paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture from the last 30 years, demonstrates how he is still evolving as an artist today. Throughout his career, Le Brun has moved effortlessly between figuration and abstraction whilst constantly enjoying the physicality and process of painting. His large canvases and sculptures show a repertoire of symbolic forms derived from nature, myth, poetry and music. He continues to explore, with great inventiveness, the conventions and potential of painting as an art form. Published to accompany the artist's solo exhibition at The New Art Gallery Walsall, 8 February - 6 April 2008.
Idris Khan
If time were condensed into a single moment, the world might look like one of Idris Khan's works of art. Born in Birmingham in 1978, the artist, who's currently rising rapidly in the art world, works with photographs, sculptures, installations, paintings, and film. He always layers various media--for example, every page of the Quran, the scores for every Beethoven sonata, or every JMW Turner postcard from the Tate Britain--in a way that condenses the colors and shapes so much that they become abstract. The British newspaper The Guardian describes Khan's works as "experiments in compressed memories." The catalogue from The New Art Gallery Walsall illustrates the whole palette of Khan's art and shows the meditative, yet monumental character of his work. Exhibition: 3 February -- 7 May 2017, The New Art Gallery Walsall
Alison Turnbull
This volume contains plans and paintings relating to such buildings as a library, lighthouse, prison, and apartment. The paintings take on a symbolic quality with the forms. Free-floating, they fuse the representational with the abstract.
Edward Burne-Jones, Victorian Artist-dreamer
This publication is issued in conjunction with the 1998 exhibition of the same name held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and scheduled for venues in England and France. Burnes-Jones (1833-1898) created a style that had widespread influence on both British and European art--a narrative style derived from medieval legend and fused with the influence of Italian Renaissance masters, a style that ceded popularity to a growing taste for abstraction at the end of the 19th century. Now Burne-Jones's star has risen again, and this catalogue contains full discussion of his life and work and representation of his prodigious output of drawings and paintings. 9.5x12.5"Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Jonathan Shaw
Over the years, Shaw has developed a fascination with the representation of time and movement in, and through, photography. His work can be seen as part of a long tradition of experimentation whereby the camera becomes both an instrument of scientific record and a tool for aesthetic exploration. Like that of his predecessors, Marey and Muybridge, Shaw's practice draws on a wide range of knowledge and skills. In addition to displaying the creativity and application of an artist, Shaw makes use of science, technology and engineering, frequently designing, building and customising camera equipment to more fully explore representations of space, time and movement. For this exhibition, Shaw trans...
Yeats Annual No. 10
Yeats Annual No. 10 finds new thresholds and margins in Yeats's thought and work. It concentrates upon his plays, his occult concerns with spiritualism and the Irish belief in an otherworld, and closely examines certain aspects of his textual state and the borders of his canon. 'The admirable Yeats Annual ... a powerful base of biographical and textual knowledge. Since 1982 the vade mecum of ... Yeats ... full of interest'. Bernard O'Donoghue, The Times Literary Supplement
The Art of Strip Photography
Maarten Vanvolsem explains how the strip technique can tell a different story of time and space in photographic images, a story that leads to new expressions and experiences of time and movement.
