This book presents the shared sculptures and drawings of Bill Woodrow and Richard Deacon. It showcases the work they have made together over the last thirty years, exhibition by exhibition.

Richard Deacon's ruminations on the art of sculpture from the Paleolithic to the presentOriginally delivered as a lecture by British sculptor Richard Deacon (born 1949), this volume provides a visual chronology and historical survey of sculpture--from Paleolithic hand axes to 3D printers--while revealing some of Deacon's own ideas on authorship, authenticity and appropriation.

This book accompanys PEER's show presenting a group of sculptural works produced between the late 1940s and early 1990s. An exhibition that focused on Jevric's Proposals for Monuments was presented at the Henry Moore Institute in 2006, but this will be Jevric's first solo exhibition in London. Jevric worked primarily with a mixture of cement, iron dust, rods and nails, to create a range of distinct forms that investigate the relationship between solid matter and void; weight and weightlessness; containment and release. The surface of the works are roughly textured and pitted as if created by nature, rather than the artist's hand. Jevric referred to her work as ?spatial compositions? rather than sculptures, suggesting how her musical training provided her with an understanding of how abstract form, like tone and timbre, can be used to highly expressive ends.0 0By way of bringing Jevric's extraordinary work to contemporary British audiences, Richard Deacon (who met the artist at her studio on a number of occasions) and Phyllida Barlow and have been invited to write personal responses to this artist's work. Other texts include an introduction by Fedja Klikovac of Handel Street Projects, a preface by Ingrid Swenson from PEER gallery and an essay by Serbian art historian Jesa Denegri.00Exhibition: PEER gallery, London, UK (28.06.-14.09.2019).
