The British School of Sculpture, c. 1760?1832 represents the first edited collection exploring one of the most significant moments in British art history, returning to centre stage a wide range of sculpture considered for the first time by some of the most important scholars in the field. Following a historical and historiographical introduction by the editors, situating British sculpture in relation to key events and developments in the period, and the broader scholarship on British art more generally in the period and beyond, the book contains nine wide-ranging case studies that consider the place of antique and modern sculpture in British country houses in the period, monuments to heroes of commerce and the Napoleonic Wars, the key debates fought around ideal sculpture at the Royal Academy, the reception of British sculpture across Europe, the reception of Hindu sculpture deriving from India in Britain, and the relationship of sculpture to emerging industrial markets, both at home and abroad. Challenging characterisations of the period as 'neoclassical', the volume reveals British sculpture to be a much more eclectic and various field of endeavour, both in service of the state and challenging it, and open to sources ranging from the newly arrived Parthenon Frieze to contemporary print culture.

This title was first published 2003. In the twentieth century, Britain was rich in artistic achievement, especially in sculpture. Just some of those working in this field were Jacob Epstein, Henri Gaudier-Brzeska, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Anthony Caro, Richard Long, Mona Hatoum and Anish Kapoor. The work of these and other known and less well-known artists has an astonishing variety and expressive power, a range and strength that has placed Britain at the hub of the artistic world. Alan Windsor has compiled a concise biographical dictionary of sculpture in Britain in book form. Richly informative and easy-to-use, this guide is an art-lover's and expert's essential reference. Written by scholars, the entries are cross-referenced and each concise biographical outline provides the relevant facts about the artist's life, a brief characterization of the artist's work, and, where appropriate, major bibliographical references.

"The editorial team, and invited experts in the field, have drawn on a mass of archival and scholarly material, including Gunnis's own extensive unpublished archive, to rewrite all the major lives of the sculptors, and to add over 1,000 new ones. Each entry gives a brief biography of the sculptor, where possible, followed by a list of his or her known works. Each work is identified by date and location, past or present, and provenance, materials, exhibitions, known preparatory sketches and models, and bibliographical references are also recorded." "The dictionary is a treasure trove of information for sculpture, architectural and art historians. It will also be of great interest to enthusiasts and collectors, and to those with a general interest in British cultural history who wish to identify or locate works of sculpture in Britain and to learn more about the artists who created them."--BOOK JACKET.

In his 1982 essay, at a time of disillusionment with the idea of progress, Michael Newman discusses how British sculptors employed a variety of means - from recycling discarded objects to synthesising cultural archetypes - in what amounts to a rejection of the linear view of history, concluding with Tony Carter's, By Bread Only - for the Demise of Icons (1978-9), recently acquired for the Leeds Museums and Galleries Sculpture Collections.Jon Wood and Michael Newman discuss the place of Carter and his work in the field of sculpture in the early 1980s and consider this work's inclusion in Whitechapel Art Gallery's British Sculpture in the Twentieth Century catalogue, but not, in the end, in the actual exhibition. Newman also gives his thoughts on his 1982 essay today.The essays also examine the work of other important British artists including Tony Cragg, Bill Woodrow, Jean-Luc Vilmouth, Kate Blacker, Alison Wilding, Antony Gormley, Richard Deacon, Shirazeh Houshiary, and Anish Kapoor.Accompanies the two exhibitions, Sculpture by Another Name: Tony Carter's 'By Bread Only' (21 February -20 May 2018) at Henry Moore Institute, and The Sculpture Collections (22 March - 2 September 2018) at Henry Moore Institute and Leeds Art Gallery.Includes an essay by Jon Wood and a reprint of, New Sculpture in Britain by Michael Newman (first published in Art in America, 1982).Photo Credit: Tony Carter, 'By Bread Only - For the Demise of Icons' 1978-9, Leeds Museums and Galleries (Leeds Art Gallery).

'Public Sculpture in Britain' is entertaining, highly illustrated and educative at the same time. It is full of art and ingenuity too, though for many reader the book's most useful quality is clarity, for instance when recalling lost sculptures, or untangling the last few decades with hundreds of new arrivals.
