Book - Antony Gormley

Martin Caiger-Smith examines the relationship between Gormley's life and art and identifies the singular vision that ties together a vast canon of work in an extraordinary range of media and materials. Drawing on images that range from childhood snap-shots to photographs of his most recent installations, this book traces the evolution of Gormley's work, from the drawings he makes every day in the studio, through the constantly evolving process of casting his own body in various forms, to the ultimate expression of his ideas in such masterpieces as the colossal Angel of the North or the scattered figures of Another Place.
