Joanne Tatham and Tom O'Sullivan: A Charming Meaning, a Solid Meaning, a Struggling Meaning

The Glasgow-based artists Joanne Tatham (born 1971) and Tom O'Sullivan (born 1967) have worked collaboratively since 1995, making intriguing minimalistic images, sculptural objects and installations. At once detached and mechanical, yet also folksy and alluring, these works have a character that is simultaneously alienating, playful and full of cultural references. Tatham and O'Sullivan regularly rework and re-stage their art, earning them a reputation as remarkably innovative conceptual artists. Featuring beautiful reproductions of Tatham and O'Sullivan’s wide-ranging oeuvre, as well as biographies of the artists and a bibliography, this book is a stunning introduction to a unique creative partnership and the first publication devoted to these rising stars of the British art scene.
