Description |
Bridget Riley Flashback is the first in a new series of monographic exhibitions from the Arts Council Collection. Each exhibition will bring together outstanding early works by high-profile British artists, and set them against major recent works borrowed from the artists themselves. Produced in close collaboration with the artist, this book tracks Bridget Riley’s career from its sensational beginnings in the early 1960s to the ambitious and powerful paintings and works on paper of recent years. It includes an essay by Michael Bracewell and a new piece of writing by the artist discussing her working practice. An illustrated chronology with archive photographs and an inventory of works by the artist in British public collections complete this rich survey. |
