Sarah Lucas
After 2005, Before 2012
After 2005, Before 2012 surveys the works of Sarah Lucas over six prolific years and was published to accompany Lucas’ show, SITUATION CLASSIC PERVERY, a yearlong project held at 4 New Burlington Place, London, above Sadie Coles HQ’s previous gallery space.
This monograph is the culmination of a collaborative efforts between Lucas and creative director Olu Michael Odukoya, containing black and white photographs of her work. Tracing the development of several important bodies of work, this publication documents Lucas' Penetralia series begun in 2008 – a series of totemic sculptures responding to the landscape of Suffolk – to her NUDS sculpture series, consisting of nylon tights stuffed with fluff and fashioned into ambiguous biomorphic forms.
Includes short interviews between Lucas and curators, writers, artists and friends who have closely followed her career, and a lyrical essay by Angus Fairhurst (1966-2008) written about Lucas in 1995.
