Focusing on a new body of sculptural work, produced specifically for Macleod’s forthomcing solo show at Vancouver Art Gallery, the publication presents the artist’s ambitions to deconstruct social hierarchies, using a varied pallette of culutral references.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMacleod’s work has previously referenced cultural nodes as diverse as Stanley Kubrick’s \u003ci\u003eThe Shining, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang\u003c\/i\u003e, Jethro Tull’s \u003ci\u003eBungle in the Jungle\u003c\/i\u003e and the cartoons of Chuck Jones. Macleod makes these references through a combination of form, content and technique: recent work \u003ci\u003eDorothy\u003c\/i\u003e, for example, comprises origami structures made from magazine cutouts of the famously murdered Playmate Dorothy Stratten.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn her new body of work, the work at the heart of or There and Back Again, Macleod explores the sexually evocative lyrics of Led Zeppelin and the novels of JRR Tolkien. A vast stack of Marshall amps, a skewed Chevrolet Camaro spinning on a rotisserie and monumentally exaggerated heavy metal band logos all feature in this exciting new book from one of Canada’s foremost contemporary artists.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black Dog Publishing Limited London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47043848044784,"sku":"9781908966537","price":23.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781908966537_p0.jpg?v=1763624322","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781908966537","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
