A major monograph on London-born and based sculptor Nick Hornby. Featuring a foreword by Luke Syson, Director of the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge; an essay by Dr Hannah Higham, Senior Curator of Collections and Research at the Henry Moore Foundation; and an interview by Dr Helen Pheby, Associate Director, Programme, at Yorkshire Sculpture Park. Nick Hornby (b. 1980, London) is one of the leading sculptors of his generation in Britain today, creating works on both intimate and monumental scales, and at the intersection of art history and contemporary technology. Hornby's practice uses software that allows him to extract, alter and hybridise sculptures from art history into new works made from marble, steel, bronze, resin, wood and composite materials. It could be said that Hornby has opened up a new sculptural language for the twenty-first century. This, his first major monograph, features approximately 175 images, many of which are reproduced here for the first time or have been commissioned for the publication. Alongside documentation of works presented in galleries and outdoor spaces are production images taken in the studio and fabrication workshops. Hornby's practice is here divided into four categories: Intersections, Extrusions, Hydrographics and Collaborations. 175 illustrations
