Description
Among the many pictorial devices Bridget Riley has deployed over
her long career, the use of stripes has recurred the most consistently.
Accompanying the exhibition Bridget Riley: The Stripe Paintings
1961 2012 at Galerie Max Hetzler in Berlin, this publication documents
key paintings and studies demonstrating how Riley regularly returns to
this seemingly simple idea and achieves surprising and complex results.
At the center of the book stands a group of new horizontal stripe
paintings, which take Riley's ability to animate the entire visual field
to new heights. This unique and focused publication includes full-color
illustrations alongside important new texts by John Elderfield and
Paul Moorhouse.
