註釋Comprising vivid reproductions of artworks from the Arts Council Collection, this beautiful book considers the ways in which artists have experimented with scale. It accompanies the Hayward Touring exhibition Size Matters, which brings together recent sculptures and paintings of recognisable objects that have undergone a disorientating shift in size. Featuring a postage stamp enlarged to the size of a billboard and chairs of doll-house proportions, the exhibition prompts the viewer to feel gigantic and tiny in turns. Despite the playful quality of many of the works, Size Matters poses serious questions as to why scale is so important to our culture and presents new writing on the subject.
