The human body in relation to time and space is a key theme in his work, emerging out of his engagement with archaeology and Asian and Buddhist thought, as much as out of Western sculptural tradition. This comprehensive volume, accompanying Gormley's most significant exhibition for over a decade, explores his wide-ranging use of organic, industrial and elemental materials, including iron, steel, hand-beaten lead, seawater and clay. Experiential installations on a monumental scale that test the limits of architecture appear alongside rarely seen early works from the 1970s and 1980s, and drawings and sketches of mesmerising delicacy. Texts by leading authors explore ideas of the human condition, the individual and relatedness, and consider the mysteries of the universe in relation to Gormley's sculpture. An authoritative chronology completes the book." $c --publisher's description, lower cover. 520 8 $a Since the 1980s, when the English sculptor Antony Gormley (born 1950) first began casting figures from his own body in lead and iron, his principal concern has been opening up new artistic and social venues for the display of his work. In realizing his latest work, "Horizon Field," in Austria, the artist has installed 100 figures at an elevation of nearly 7,000 feet; the figures face every direction but never towards one another. The mountain landscape, with its beguiling mix of natural beauty, urbanity and the sociality of old valley communities, provides an ideal experimental field for Gormley's investigations into the relationship between nature and culture. Of this project, the artist said: "It asks basic questions: who are we, what are we, where do we come from and to where are we headed?" Photographs of the landscape installation are contextualized with images of the artist's previous works.
