David Smith

1906 – 1965

The catalogue on David Smith that comes into being from an extensive retrospective spans the whole of the artist’s life and creative trajectory. The essays contained within explore Smith’s renewal of North American sculpture and his place in the lineage of sculptors who took iron sculpture towards modernity, for instance Julio González and Picasso. A broad appendix of texts written by the artist bring the reader closer to his working processes, his conception of sculpture’s renewal, his relationship to nature, a series of questions put forward to students and a text on Julio González.
