Simultaneously drawing on both Arte Povera and the Baroque, Spanish
artist Cristina Iglesias (born 1956) belongs to a generation of
sculptors who have pushed sculpture beyond the model of the discrete
object, merging it with its architectural environment. Iglesias' works
mimic parts of buildings--roofs, walls, corners--and deploy bas-relief,
tapestry and large-format silkscreen on silk and copper. This volume
surveys her work to date.
