Manuel Neri: The Figure in Relief

by Bruce Nixon, Maxwell L. Anderson

In this striking publication, relief sculptures and related drawings by Manuel Neri are beautifully presented. The extensive body of work shows a grounding in a long sculptural tradition that underscores Neri's significance as a sculptor of international renown. His sculptures possess incredibly rich and evocative surfaces, and his ability to depict the figural form in various media with equal mastery and sensitivity is unrivaled. His dedication and extraordinary work in plaster, ceramic, bronze and stone have merited him the 2006 Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Sculpture Center.
