Il volume costituisce un omaggio alla scultura, quella magnifica ossessione che accompagna Tony Cragg (Liverpool, 1949) fin dagli esordi. Arrangiate secondo criteri stilistici e formali, le opere rivelano una coerenza e un'organicità intrinseca a tutta l'opera di Cragg, mostrando un linguaggio espressivo costruito meticolosamente negli anni, basato sull'idea che il processo creativo sia anche un percorso di scoperta. L'artista procede sempre nello stesso modo - dal disegno alla scelta dei materiali, dalla sperimentazione della tecnica alla selezione del colore - lavorando la materia e imparando da essa e dalle sue reazioni. In questo modo l'opera si dispiega passo dopo passo nel suo farsi, rivelando le infinite possibilità della forma. Come ha dichiarato Cragg: "L'arte è l'unica disciplina che usa la materia e i materiali in senso non utilitaristico, solo per creare nuove forme, nuove idee, nuove emozioni". Pubblicata in occasione della mostra romana organizzata da BAM Eventi d'Arte, la monografia è pensata come uno strumento volto a presentare non solo le opere, ma anche il processo creativo dell'artista che ha contribuito a un rinnovamento del linguaggio plastico grazie all'introduzione di nuovi materiali e nuove tecniche, tra le più sperimentali e innovative del nostro tempo. Un'occasione di approfondimento del lavoro di un maestro che ha aperto all'arte nuove e inedite possibilità di espressione, nuovi filoni di ricerca e una coraggiosa sperimentazione di materiali, tecnologie e fonti di ispirazione che hanno influenzato generazioni di artisti dagli anni settanta a oggi. Tony Cragg. Infinite forme e bellissime presenta le installation views delle opere ed è corredato dei contributi di Stéphane Verger, Sergio Risaliti, Giulia Silvia Ghia, Sara Colantonio e di un'intervista di Jon Wood all'artista.

Sergio Risaliti, art historian and critic, journalist and curator of exhibitions and events, is the Director of the Museo Novecento in Florence.
Stéphane Verger is former Director of Museo Nazionale Romano, Terme di Diocleziano in Rome.
Jon Wood is a writer and curator, specialising in modern and contemporary sculpture.
This volume is a tribute to sculpture, that magnificent obsession that has accompanied Tony Cragg (Liverpool, 1949) since his beginnings.
Arranged according to stylistic and formal criteria, the works reveal a coherence and organicity intrinsic to Cragg's entire oeuvre, showing an expressive language meticulously constructed over the years based on the idea that the creative process is also a path of discovery. The artist always proceeds in the same way - from drawing to choosing materials, experimenting with technique, selecting colour - working with the material and learning from it and its reactions. In this way, the work only unfolds step by step in its making, revealing the infinite possibilities of form.
Published on the occasion of exhibition in Rome, the monograph is conceived as a tool to present not only the works, but also the creative process of the artist who has contributed to a renewal of plastic language thanks to the introduction of new materials and new techniques, among the most experimental and innovative of our time.
