Edward Woodman: The Artist’s Eye

Gilane Tawadros

0/5 ( ratings)

British photographer Edward Woodman has portrayed pioneering artists and their work for more than four decades―from Richard Deacon, Antony Gormley and Cornelia Parker to Mona Hatoum, Rachel Whiteread and Damien Hirst. At a time when installation and performance were becoming central to British art, he was the artist's photographer of choice. In parallel with this work, Woodman has mapped the transformation of London itself, acting as a diarist of the city and charting its architectural and social evolution since the late 1960s. This book presents work from his entire career, including artists' portraits, studios, exhibitions, installations and performances, collaborations with artists, social documentation and more recent and personal works. It also features texts on Woodman's practice and a critical assessment of his work in the history of photography, as well as contributions from some of the artists with whom he worked most closely.

Pages: 168
