For forty thousand years, we have been carving and moulding, shaping and chiselling, feeling our way and sensing our place in the world through sculpture. In this accessible, story-led journey into the heart of sculpture, renowned art historian and curator Jo Baring explores creativity, memory and why we have been driven to make art in this medium since the very beginning of humanity. She examines sculptures from the pre-historic Lion Man figure found in a German cave to an ancient Mayan pyramid that conjures a serpent made of shadows and icons of the Italian Renaissance such as Michelangelo's devastating Pietà. Along the way we encounter in a fresh light the work of twentieth century and contemporary giants such as Alberto Giacometti, Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, Constantin Brâncusi, Louise Bourgeois, Yayoi Kusama and Antony Gormley, among others. Lyrical and beautifully illustrated, Totem is a celebration of art, those creating it and those it means something to. アート 歴史・批評

批評家のレビュー

An eye-opening, soul-stirring wonder of a book. Jo Baring has travelled to some of the most remote places on Earth to tell the story of sculpture through the people and places that made them. She doesn't seek to pluck out the heart of a sculpture's mystery, but guides us - gently, wittily and insightfully - towards finding power and meaning in them for ourselves. A glorious blend of travel and nature writing, history and biography, this is a book about things made of metal, wood and stone that gets to the heart of what it is to be human (JESSIE CHILDS)
Praise for Revisiting Modern British Art: 'An intelligent and engaging reappraisal (SIR STEPHEN DEUCHAR, CBE, Former Director of Art Fund and Tate Britain)
This inclusive, questioning, invigorating book feels like a game-changer (CHARLOTTE MULLINS, author of A LITTLE HISTORY OF ART)
Through this careful and original reconsideration, modern British art emerges in an expanded form, more relevant than ever and more urgent in its message (KATE BRYAN, Art Curator, Writer, TV Presenter and Chief Art Director for Soho House)
