The essential reference work on Turnbull's sculpture, covering over five decades of work. 

A leading figure in the British sculpture revolution of the 1950s, this catalogue raisonne documents the immense changes in style and image in the work of William Turnbull. From his earliest works influenced by the ideas of post-war Paris, through the single figures of the 1950s, the stacked sculptures, the painted sculptures and on to the final pieces which seemed to be almost simultaneously ancient and modern, this overview, which contains copious illustrations, gives an incredible insight into Turnbull's work.

Now quite scarce, especially in good condition, this is an essential work for the library of those interested in British sculpture in the decades after WWII.
