Where it came from
Published by Thames & Hudson in 2009, this monograph serves as a comprehensive visual survey of the work of British artist Grayson Perry. It was produced during a period when Perry’s stature as a contemporary artist was firmly established, following his 2003 Turner Prize win. The book explores his unique practice, which spans ceramics, tapestry, and printmaking, while contextualizing his use of the medium of pottery as a subversive vehicle for social and personal narrative.
Written by art historian Jacky Klein, the text offers an intimate look into Perry’s creative process and his alter ego, Claire. Klein focuses on how Perry’s designs weave together autobiography with acute observations of the British class system and cultural landscape. Upon its release, the volume was well-received for its rich illustrative content, providing both seasoned collectors and newcomers with a detailed retrospective of his career and the intricate, often challenging iconography that defines his artistic output.
