  • Images of the iconic artist's body of work track his craft from his seminal pieces through nearly sixty years of ongoing exploration and achievements
  • Included are three essays that offer varying perspectives on Castle's vast works and an extensive back matter section that further elucidates his vocation
Sculptor and furniture designer Wendell Castle has carved a distinct path over nearly six decades of a distinguished career, and this long-awaited recording of his oeuvre, Wendell Castle: A Catalogue Raisonné, 1958-2012, beautifully delivers.

Castle is widely collected and has works in the permanent collections of more than 40 museums and cultural institutions around the world, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York); Museum of Modern Art (New York); Smithsonian American Art Museum (Washington, DC); Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal (Quebec, Canada); and the Victoria and Albert Museum (London).

Castle has also been the recipient of many honours and awards, including four National Endowment for the Arts grants, three honourary degrees, the American Craft Council Gold Medal, and a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Brooklyn Museum of Ar
