BRIDGET RILEY
Colour, Stripes, Planes and Curves
An essential publication for followers of the influential painter Bridget Riley, this exhibition catalog traces the artist’s progress through the agency of stripes, planes and curves through her paintings and studies from the past 30 years. Riley’s early color paintings were strongly influenced by the discoveries of Seurat and the Impressionists. Study of Cézanne, in particular his practice of drawing with color and a desire to dig deeper into pictorial space, led to the introduction of planes in grids formed by the junction of intersecting verticals and diagonals – and of colors and contrasts. Includes an interview with the artist conducted by the Director of Kettle’s Yard, Michael Harrison.
9.75 x 11.75 inches / 40 pp / 3 b/w and 23 color

MATHILDE ROSIER
Ceremonially Infused
French artist Mathilde Rosier creates atmospheric environments which draw on her interest in the occult, Freudian analysis and ancient rites and rituals. This full-color exhibition catalog, Rosier’s first monograph, brings together the artist’s exquisite paintings with her sculptural assemblages, installations and film. These specially constructed environments evoke a journey between conscious and unconscious realms, using motifs like a bed or a cat representing a threshold to buried psychic states. The dreamlike elements transport the viewer into a heightened sensual state. The book combines drawings and text to provide direct access to this richly imaginative artist’s intellectual world. With commentary by curator Claudia Emmert.
