The richly-illustrated first monograph on Will Ryman, the New York artist whose theatrical sculptures elevate the grit and absurdity of everyday life into monumental, thought-provoking installations, surveys more than two decades of his work. The book traces Ryman’s evolution from playwright to artist and his current practice at the intersection of the two disciplines. Available now.
