Her unique practice of material overlay and erasure creates fantastic compositions. Creating conceptual tensions between formal and informal aesthetics, Wylie employs the visual elements of text as formal details in her paintings.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e With a beautiful swiss binding, this monograph compiles the work of four exhibitions at David Zwirner offering a full breadth of Wylie’s most recent work to date. Giving insight and compassion to Wylie’s feminist and rebellious impulses, Judith Bernstein writes an accompanying text on how she relates to Wylie’s ambitious and playful energy. With a foreword by Nicholas Serota, this publication also features new essays by Barry Schwabsky and David Salle and an enlightening interview between the artist and Hans Ulrich Obrist.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43128612782258,"sku":"9781644230756","price":70.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781644230756_dc9abe39-0660-4448-8518-58359397c9c5.jpg?v=1786024368"},{"product_id":"9781644230299","title":"Rose Wylie: Painting a Noun...","description":"\u003cb\u003eCelebrated British painter Rose Wylie—whose works are at once tactile, cerebral, and humorous—often draws her influence from a wide range of popular culture.

While initially these may seem random or aesthetically simplistic, through the nuanced use of humor, language, and compositional structure, Wylie creates wittily observed and subtly sophisticated meditations on the nature of memory, and visual representation itself, in line with the paintings she has become known for over the course of her career.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A new essay by art critic Michael Glover explores the remarkable painter whose work has “spark, assurance, brash humor, an extraordinary, freewheeling eclecticism that seems to be just as ready to suck in references to the art of Ptolemaic Egypt and Roman portraiture as to pay homage to the films of Quentin Tarantino and the late paintings of Philip Guston.” Part of David Zwirner Books’s \u003ci\u003eSpotlight Series\u003c\/i\u003e, this book features Wylie’s newest paintings and drawings and is published on the occasion of the artist’s 2020 solo exhibition of these works at David Zwirner Hong Kong.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56302645903733,"sku":"9781644230299","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781644230299_9726bf2f-3230-48f5-874f-013f0cca8fb7.jpg?v=1786024345"},{"product_id":"9781644230619","title":"William Shakespeare × Rose Wylie","description":"\u003cb\u003eSet on a remote island, Shakespeare’s \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e is an ideal subject for the artist Rose Wylie, whose work frequently references classic stories and well-known characters.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLikely the last play written entirely by Shakespeare, \u003ci\u003eThe Tempest\u003c\/i\u003e brings together various themes the Bard explored in his prior plays, including magic, revenge and forgiveness, order and society, and nature versus art.
