Description

Though Anthony Caro's oeuvre is most readily identified by large-scale and plinthless sculptures that sometimes dwarf the viewer, he has directed a significant portion of his energies over the years to the production of domestically sized pieces in a variety of media. This volume explores this underappreciated course of Caro's prolific output.
