SUMMARY:ANDREW LOGAN: THE JOY OF SCULPTURE
DESCRIPTION:Bonington Gallery is delighted to present Andrew Logan The Joy of Sculpture\, a solo exhibition spanning 50 years of practice from one of Britain’s most iconic artists. Andrew – sculptor\, painter\, and jewellery artist – is known for challenging convention\, mixing media and playing with artistic values. \n\n\n\nThe Joy of Sculpture presents a collection of Andrew Logan’s work – from large-scale sculptures\, mirror portraits and jewellery\, and archive displays from his infamous Alternative Miss World competitions. Including new creations and those never shown before\, this exhibition brings together all areas of Logan’s practice in a single place. \n\n\n\nAndrew’s artwork reflects his unrelenting\, and infectious\, passion\, joy and energy. Smashed glass and found objects are transformed\, becoming flamboyant\, colourful and glittering objects\, in all shapes and sizes. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKey works within the The Joy of Sculpture include: \n\n\n\nGoldfield\, first commissioned by the Whitechapel Gallery in 1976\, transforming half of the gallery into a giant wheat field.Mirror Portraits\, based on Andrew’s family and friends – including visionaries Derek Jarman\, Scarlett Cannon\, and Duggie Fields. A four-metre-high mirror portrait of Duggie will be displayed to the public for the first time.The Arum Lily Record Player sculpture\, which Andrew has selected a daily record to be played at various times throughout the day.\n\n\n\nAndrew’s work doesn’t offer that much to the would-be catalogue mystifier. If you start saying anything too pretentious about it\, it sort of laughs in your face. It’s hard to place\, because it doesn’t really quite belong anywhere\, guilelessly straddling a number of heavily contested boundaries – such as those between art and craft\, between art and decoration\, between pop and fine\, between the profane and sacred. Brian Eno\n\n\n\nOur Bonington Vitrines will house archive material from Andrew’s celebrated Alternative Miss World competition. The infamous pageant\, inspired by the Crufts dog show\, was started in 1972 and hosted by Logan – who acts as both host and hostess. Contestants and judges over the years have included David Hockney\, Ruby Wax\, Leigh Bowery\, Grayson Perry\, and Zandra Rhodes. Accompanying The Joy of Sculpture will be a programme of public events\, as well as a commissioned essay by Lynda Morris\, curator\, writer and Andrew’s acquaintance. \n\n\n\nHeader image credit: Andrew Logan as Host and Hostess for Alternative Miss World 1973 by Mick Rock. \n\n\n\n			\n\n				\n					\n				\n				Installation view.
