Sean Scully's abstract paintings are world-famous. In them he moves far beyond a purely formal confrontation with color, form, plane, and light by also incorporating his attitudes to-ward art, society, ethics, and metaphysics. To date, however, little attention has been paid to the fact that he also creates sculptures. For these, Scully layers elements made of steel, stone, bronze, and painted aluminum on top of each other, creating horizontal structures that expand upward, yet are also linked to the stripes in his paintings. This monograph is now the first to compile Scully's important sculptures in a sin-gle volume. Besides numerous pictures, it also contains exten-sive essays about his work.

"A succinct account of the life and art of Sean Scully, widely considered to be one of the leading abstract painters of our time. This work sets his entire output within a detailed biographical framework, closely examining the relationship between the artist's paintings and his lesser-known drawings, pastels, watercolors, and prints-areas of Scully's production that are rarely considered together"--

Sean Scully is among the greatest abstract painters of our age. He is also one of the most outspoken. Since the late 1960s, Scully's visual expressiveness has been matched by a verbal dynamism that is no less arresting than his art. Varying widely in form from brief reflections of compressed eloquence to essay-long meditations on artists such as Vincent Van Gogh, Giorgio Morandi and Mark Rothko, Scully's writings are distinguished by a brutal lyricism and the effortlessness of their aphoristic turn of phrase. At once biographical and political, poignant and unflinching, the nearly 200 texts that comprise Inner: The Collected Writings and Selected Interviews of Sean Scully provide a unique perspective on one of the most engaging artistic imaginations of the past half century. Here, readers will discover the effusions of a mind tirelessly wrestling with the profoundest issues of art, cultural history, and what it means to be a creator in the contemporary world. The volume will be accompanied by key images illustrating Scully's words as well as facsimile reproductions of handwritten pages by the artist into which drawings have been integrated.

A catalogue of the recent exhibition featuring Scully's 'Landline' paintings, which address the artist's preoccupation with the horizon. Sean Scully is one of the most important abstract artists of our time. His new publication, Landlines and other recent works, accompanies the artist's major solo exhibition at De Pont Museum, Tilburg, and centres on three important bodies of work: Doric, Landline and Eleuthera, Scully's first representational works in half a century. The publication also presents a generous selection of previously unseen early works, illustrating the world-renowned painter's development as an artist. High-quality photography illustrates the artworks both individually and in situ at the De Pont Museum's unique exhibition space. The book also includes three exemplary pieces of critical writing; Rudi Fuchs gives a rigorous analysis of Scully's robust and architectural Doric series of paintings, Kelly Grovier contributes an extensive, melodic text tracing the deep roots of Scully's recent figurative paintings, while Declan Long reflects upon Scully's undulating Landline series of paintings.
