Featuring a formidable list of writers, and encapsulating the eclectic range of art that has delighted and inspired audiences throughout Hayward Gallery's history, this book ranges from painting and photography to sculpture, choreography and architecture, and takes in a huge diversity of subjects, from Paul Klee to the art of the Harlem Renaissance, from David Shrigley's drawings to David Hockney's photographs, from Francis Bacon's take on the human body to Africa Remix, from Pipilotti Rist's installations to Afro-Asian artists in postwar Britain.
