For more than fifty years, sculptor Ken Price (1935–2012)
challenged traditional practice with his consistently
innovative work. This definitive catalogue for Ken Price
Sculpture: A Retrospective is a remarkable visual record of
the sculptor’s career, featuring stunning photographs
by Fredrik Nilsen of more than one hundred of Price’s
works. Essays by exhibition curator Stephanie Barron,
Frank O. Gehry, Dave Hickey, and Phyllis Tuchman,
and a compilation of interviews with Price by MaLin
Wilson-Powell provide commentary on the intimate yet
dramatic appeal of his work and place it definitively
within the evolution of contemporary sculpture.
