Barbara Chase-Riboud Monumentale: The Bronzes

Accompanying the largest monographic exhibition of trailblazing artist Barbara Chase-Riboud's (b. 1939, Philadelphia) work to date, Barbara Chase-Riboud Monumentale: The Bronzes traces the full output of the artist's remarkable career from the 1950s to the present. The catalogue features both celebrated and never-before-seen artworks, highlighting the artist's groundbreaking role in the field of contemporary sculpture. In addition to some fifty sculptures, the book presents twenty works on paper, as well as a selection of Chase-Riboud's internationally acclaimed poetry. It also includes excerpts from an interview with the artist conducted for the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution. The catalogue offers a careful consideration of the many diverse aspects of the artist's practice, and in doing so, it provides unprecedented insights into her meditations on form, memory, and monument, while revealing a rich array of global art-historical and literary points of inspiration--
