  • The Wind moves the Waves, the Waves move the Light, and the Light moves us all: George Sherwood.
  • George Sherwood's kinetic sculptures invite us to observe, experience, contemplate and engage more fully in the natural world around us. His intricate and innovatively designed works explore aesthetic systems of space, time, and the dynamic relationships of objects in motion. The choreography of each piece is governed by a set of basic movements, facilitated by an arrangement of aerodynamic surfaces connected by rotational points. The Artist Book Foundation is pleased to present George Sherwood: Wind, Waves, and Light, the first monograph on this award-winning artist's lustrous, subtly transformative works.
  • Featuring 100 sculptures from Sherwood's early whimsical explorations to his monumental commissions that have graced private and public gardens, city sites, and exhibition spaces around the world, readers will witness how changing winds, shades of light, times of day, precipitation, and the seasons' changing colors alter the sculptures, animate their surroundings, and ignite the imagination. Sherwood's sculptures are often made of stainless steel, a reflective material that serves to integrate the works into the unique and often transient light of their environments.
  • See the Exhibit at NEBG: Art in Motion, 25 Years of Sculpture by George Sherwood, May 3 – October 12, 2025.
