Interpreting Caro by Paul Moorehouse
Interpreting Caro provides a lively, accessible introduction to the work of one of the world's leading sculptors. It covers Caro's ouevre from the early 1950s to the present day, and examines in detail the principal phases of his career. Intended both for the general reader and the Caro enthusiast, Interpreting Caro considers the artist's working methods, identifies his aims and concerns, and proposes ways of understanding and responding to particular sculptures and areas of activity. Moorhouse examines and explains the key, often dramatic, changes in Caro's working practice over five decades, including his rejection of the plinth and breakthrough to abstraction in the 1960s, the highly influential small-scale, work in the 1970s, and his adoption of a wide-range of media since the 1980s. Interpreting Caro is an invaluable overview of the career of this most influential of sculptors.
Paul Moorhouse is a Tate curator and the author of numerous publications on contemporary British art including Bridget Riley; Leon Kossoff; Richard Long: Walking the Line; and Anthony Caro: Sculpture Towards Architecture.
