Illustrazioni a colori e in bianco e nero. Biografia e Catalogo delle opere esposte . 8vo (cm 26x19). pp. 164. . Perfetto (Mint). . . . Catalogo della prima mostra dell'artista che ha riunito insieme i suoi dipinti e le sue fotografie. Artista, insegnante, scrittore e curatore Thompson con la sua pratica artistica ha sempre eluso classificazioni, traendo lo spettatore sempre al centro di un complesso intrico di domande e investigazioni concernenti la natura stessa dell'arte.La sua arte si è spostata dalla pittura alla fotografia concettuale e alla scultura, ma dopo il suo ritiro dall'insegnamento Thompson si è concentrato su un tipo di pittura astratta. Nel 1988 ha partecipato alla curatela dell'ormai leggendaria mostra del magazzino Freeze, insieme a vari studenti d'arte e a Damien Hirst. Ha inoltre curato mostre alla Hayward Gallery di Londra, tra cui Gravity and Grace e Falls the Shadow con Barry Barker. Book.

At the risk of being tedious I have given the names of the men back of the movements in order that we may become acquainted with the builders of our city as they come before the eyes of the public. The names of many worthy citizens have not been mentioned because they did not happen to come before the public vision. I have told of a few crimes which have been so notorious as to become a part of the history and many I have omitted." ; color frontispiece ; VG. Book.
