| book description |
The first monograph on the renowned British sculptor, whose organic and sensual forms made of steel, bronze, and marble, with highly polished surfaces, have evolved into highly important large-scale projects around the world. Richard Hudson (b. 1954, Yorkshire, UK) began working on his organic forms and sculptures at a relatively late age after many years of traveling. Drawing inspiration from luminaries such as Henry Moore, Jean Arp, and Constantin Brâncuşi, Hudson creates work that is meticulously refined, timeless, and contemporary. Hudson’s imaginative forms are frequently emblematic of the human figure and, at the same time, possess reflective surfaces and evoke surreal reflections of the environment.  This landscape-format book illustrates a wide range of Hudson’s work, from never-before-seen models and sketches to miniature and monumental pieces, including his major installations at Chatsworth, notably Frog with Fly in 2015 and Tear in 2016, and his numerous commissions globally, such as Love Me in Donum Sculpture Park, California, in 2016, and a second version in Valle de Bravo, Mexico, in 2021. Despite the immense size of these installations, Hudson’s creative process nevertheless remains distinctively unassuming, studio-based, private, and introspective. This book substantiates Hudson’s cultural impact, positioning him as a pivotal figure in contemporary sculpture.
