Resistant Forms is a fully illustrated monograph celebrating the first major survey exhibition of Donald Locke (1930–2010), organised by Spike Island, Bristol, Ikon Gallery, Birmingham, and Camden Art Centre, London.Charting the development of his work across Guyana, the UK and the United States over five decades, from the mid-1960s to the late 2000s, this richly-illustrated volume offers an in-depth exploration of Locke’s expansive practice. Gathering newly commissioned essays by curator Grace Aneiza Ali, curator Gina Buenfeld-Murley, artist Eddie Chambers and art historian Giulia Smith alongside an extended introduction by Robert Leckie, Resistant Forms features colour plates of the artist’s work, rarely seen material from the artist’s archive and a comprehensive timeline. The book has been designed by London-based studio Wolfe Hall.The exhibition is generously supported by The Ampersand Foundation, Henry Moore Foundation, the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, Alison Jacques Gallery and the Estate of Donald Locke.The publication has been made possible with the generous support from Henry Moore Foundation and the Paul Mellon Centre.
