Riassunto

Since the late 1970s Richard Wentworth has emerged as a key figure transforming the way we think about sculpture and the work of art. He finds his materials in the everyday world, deploying ready-made things and thoughts in new and unexpected contexts.
Whether isolating a marginal, easily overlooked event in a photograph or combining, transforming or manipulating found objects not normally associated with art including dictionaries, sweet wrappers, books, plates and buckets in his sculptures, Wentworth teases us into a new awareness of the everyday and allows the thousands of tiny gestures that constitute the world around us to be read in new and unexpected ways.
In this extensively illustrated survey, Michael Bracewell, Roger Malbert, Mark Lythgoe and Simon Groom explore Wentworth's work and his role in the history of British and international art over the last three decades.
