Book Launch – 14th and 15th September 2024 –
Encounters Artspace, 12 Langdale Road, Hove, BN3 4HN. 2pm – 10 pm
Encounters Artspace will be hosting the launch of Sculpting Colour; a monograph of my sculptures and paintings spanning nearly 35 years.
I have been working on this book for the last 18 months, after being approached by Unicorn Publishers in February 2023. It has been an
intense experience!
Alex Leith, the author, specialises in modern and contemporary British art. He is currently Chair of the Critics’ Circle Visual Arts and editor of British Art News.
Alex’s biography details my life growing up in Ireland, and how subsequent events, in particular the death of Paul Tay, have influenced my artistic career. Alex analyses the sculptural techniques I employ in painting, and why I regard myself as a sculptor who paints.
