Synopsis
Metamorphosis of material: the sculptures of Cy Twonbly
Though perhaps best known for his paintings, Cy Twombly (1928–2011) developed a singular body of sculpture over the course of his 60-year career. These sculptures are made from quotidian materials such as wood, metal and found objects, to which he applied a delicate and unifying layer of white paint. The resulting group of works appear not so much as a progression as a series as they do, individually, as a metamorphosis of material. This book marks the long-term exhibition of five Twombly sculptures at Glenstone Museum. The catalogue includes an original essay by scholar Kate Nesin and never-before-published archival images of the sculptures in the artist's studios in Italy courtesy of the Nicola Del Roscio Archives.

From the Back Cover
Cy Twombly's photographs are a late blessing from the hand of one of the most innovative American artists. Along with peonies, tulips are his floral passion. This small book accompanies a show of his tulip photographs at Schirmer/Mosel Showroom, Munich, in June. They captivate the viewer by the subtle irresistibility of sepia-toned dryprints. The prints will be complemented by poetry selected by the artist.
