Artist|Work|Lisson Published by Lisson Gallery.
Edited by Ossian Ward. Text by Nicholas Logsdail, Alex Logsdail, Greg Hilty. Contributions by Stuart Morgan, Okwui Enwezor, Iwona Blazwick, et al. Featuring work by more than 150 artists from over 500 exhibitions staged at Lisson’s galleries in London, Milan and New York since 1967, this substantial 1,200-page volume is gathered from five decades of resources, including installation views, invitations, letters, postcards and other ephemera, essays and significant press clippings. The A–Z structure features every artist to have had a solo show with Lisson, from Abramovic, Andre and Arcangel to Ryman, Sandback and Weiner. Each is accompanied by a short narrative, notable review or previously published extract by many of the finest art writers of the last half-century, including Stuart Morgan, Okwui Enwezor, Iwona Blazwick, Germano Celant, Chrissie Iles, Lisa Phillips, Roberta Smith, Homi K. Bhabha, Tom McCarthy and Robert Storr. Additional essays address the gallery’s longevity and position at the center of contemporary art in Britain over the last 50 years.
