Bridget Riley by Bridget Riley
The exhibition at the Hayward Gallery was a really great retrospective with lots of fantastic work spanning decades. Her paintings are miracles. This book is lovely and well produced, and a nice reminder of it. The essays are interesting though some of them do cover similar ground but I always learn something reading about Bridget Riley's work and methods.

In addition to paintings, Frankenthaler's studies on paper, prints, book covers, ceramic and metal sculpture, tapestries, set designs, and mural works are also featured. John Elderfield's text is enhanced by quotations from Frankenthaler and from other contemporary artists and critics who shed new light on her enormous achievement, resulting in the definitive work on the artist.… (more)
