New publication – Stephen Willats: Time Tumbler

Published on the occasion of the exhibition, this book features new writing on the artist by Bronaċ Ferran, John Kelsey, Jelena Kristic and Stephanie Willats.

In celebration of Willats' eightieth birthday and his long-standing collaboration with the gallery, the exhibition demonstrates the evolution of his aesthetic vocabulary and its conceptual underpinning as the world around us has changed. Concerned with notions of time - within and between the works on view - it gathers the artist's first diagram works of the 1970s resulting from site-specific, interactive projects with people in their communities, and juxtaposes these with recent works.

The 176-page cloth-bound book, with a French-folded dust jacket, is printed on three different papers and is richly illustrated with 64 colour plates. It is designed by Joe Hales and printed by Editoriale Bortolazzi Stei.
