Summary
"The abstract constructions that Anthony Caro began to make in 1960 heralded a revolution in sculpture. Abandoning conventional methods and materials, Caro bolted and welded together pieces of scrap steel, and then painted them in bright colours. No longer confined on a plinth, as if occupying an imaginary space, Caro's work stood directly on the ground. These developments were highly influential, overturning ideas regarding the subject, materials, appearance and potential of sculpture. Here [author] provides an accessbile introduction to a career spanning over fifty years, in which Caro has continued to innovate."--Back cover.
