There is a a comprehensive list of my published magazine articles and catalogue essays on the cv page of this website. Download PDFs of selected features here. It is now possible to search for my various reviews and pieces for Art Monthly since 2001 at www.artmonthly.co.uk


Most of my reviews have been of sculpture and installation work, and I recently contributed an essay on the connections between William Turnbull, Julian Opie, and Liam Gillick to the Royal Academy's Modern British Sculpture catalogue. I have also written critically about the way that participatory practices are often used and abused. Writers who are artists do have a greater insight, I feel, into the problems and processes of the studio, and I have sometimes tried to address these in essay form. It is easy to criticise from the sidelines as a critic, but as an artist you have to face the problem of actually putting something physical and material out there.
