Craig Wood: Catalogue Raisonné 1987-2018

By Craig Wood

A comprehensive survey of the YBA conceptualist

Over the past 30 years, the Scottish-born, Welsh-based artist Craig Wood (born 1960) has developed a distinct body of work, ranging from large-scale floor-based installations to site-specific performances and socially engaged actions. Craig Wood: Catalogue Raisonn is the first published retrospective and definitive study of his career. This large-format paperback book covers over 30 years of Wood's impressive oeuvre, starting in 1987 when he was studying Fine Art at Goldsmiths College of Art, London. The book is illustrated with over 500 images and features an essay by art critic and Reader of Fine Art at Goldsmiths Michael Archer, and an interview by British artist Fiona Banner (aka The Vanity Press).
Graduating in 1989, Wood was part of the Young British Artists, and his early exhibitions included Damien Hirst's seminal Modern Medicine in 1990. He would later have commercial representation through galleries in London, Paris and Turin.
Throughout his career, Wood's artistic output has been site-specific, examining the properties of "site" or "context" and how this drives creative processes. He has received numerous national awards and several prestigious international residencies, with artworks in major collections such as Tate, Saatchi Gallery, the Victoria & Albert Museum and the UK Arts Council.
