Ann Christopher. Sculpture and drawings 1969-89

Article number 10160157

Ann Christopher. Sculpture and Drawings 1969-89 surveys two decades of work by British sculptor Ann Christopher, bringing together sculpture and drawings produced between 1969 and 1989. Christopher's work explores abstract sculptural form, material, surface, line and the relationship between solid mass and surrounding space. Her sculptures are characterised by carefully articulated forms and tactile surfaces, while the drawings reveal a closely related investigation of structure, rhythm and spatial relationships. The publication includes an introduction by sculptor Elisabeth Frink and a contribution by art critic and curator Bryan Robertson, with photographic documentation including work by Pete Chinn. Published by the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 1989, this illustrated first-edition catalogue provides an important record of Christopher's artistic development during the first twenty years of her career and is of particular interest to collectors and researchers of British sculpture, women sculptors, post-war art and artists' drawings.
