OverviewThis landmark book reflects on almost 70 years of works by Bridget Riley (b.1931), from some of her earliest to very recent projects, providing a unique record of the work of an artist still very much at the height of her powers. Essays from leading scholars and commentators on Riley's work will make this title the authority on new thinking around Riley's practice. The book includes a special 'in conversation with Bridget Riley' discussion conducted by Michael Bracewell. In the last decade, Riley has continued to push her practice considerably, producing several large-scale site-specific wall paintings as well as continuing to develop new paintings. This book will explore these recent developments, as well as showcasing a number of very early drawings and paintings by Riley never previously published. It will also examine the notable influence that other artists such as Georges Seurat and Piet Mondrian have had on Riley's work.
