While most conceptual artists probably accept that a certain degree of public bemusement comes with the turf, Deller is that rare thing: a conceptualist who feels the need to explain his art. This book is really nicely put together, well bound, solid weight and filled with good quality colouring and I suppose it would make a great gift for someone.

All artworks are sent using a reputable courier service selected by The Modern Institute/Toby Webster Ltd.In conversation with Sorcha Carey, curator of the next Folkestone Triennial, Deller will discuss 30 years of his conceptual art, as well as his interests in politics, music and folk culture. Creative Folkestone is also supported by Arts Council England, Folkestone and Hythe District Council, Kent County Council and The Roger De Haan Charitable Trust. And he’s very good at unpacking things – in a number of works he explores how England uses Stonehenge as a mirror for the concerns of its society at the time.

You look at them now, and it’s pretty wild: the makeup, the glitter, the stage costumes, all that cross-dressing by people who were not really like that at all. All artwork deliveries from The Modern Institute/Toby Webster Ltd require a signature and we accept no responsibility if the signature is not that of the recipient, or nominate recipient, and will consider the package correctly delivered.The book features work from across Deller's life and art and includes Sacrilege the inflatable Stonehenge, the Iggy Pop Life Class, The Battle of Orgreave, a recreation of a confrontation from the Miners' Strike, bats (a subject in at least three of Deller's works), Andy Warhol (whom he met in 1986), rave culture, hen harriers pecking out the eyes of a Tory MP, and a giant Chameleon slide. He won the Turner Prize in 2004 for his work Memory Bucket and represented Britain in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013. In many of our projects we find cocreation with residents and visitors can introduce unexpected elements that improve the usefulness and value of our designs. Some of the data that are collected include the number of visitors, their source, and the pages they visit anonymously. He won the Turner Prize in 2004 for his work Memory Bucket and represented Britain in the 55th Venice Biennale in 2013.

Texts by Jeremy Deller; interview with Jeremy Deller by Daniel Scott, Alan Kane, Mary Beard, Jonny Banger, Cheerio. The elaborate book, conceived by Jeremy Deller himself, is structured into twelve chapters written by the artist and includes five interviews.Tinged with an assertive socio-political discourse, his works make a link between culture—vernacular or mass—and the world of work.

I saw his ‘Joy in People’ show at the Hayward and bounced on ‘Sacrilege’, his inflatable replica of Stonehenge, when it opened in Glasgow in 2012.Well, I’m 57, so I’m getting on now, but you have to be open and be a sponge to some degree to be an artist, whatever age you are. It is divided into three sections: a visual guide through his favourite work, in-depth reflections on his life and art and, finally, a scrapbook of images to explain what drives him (from Rod Stewart to bats, the perfect jukebox to neolithic axe heads). It is subtitled “a children’s book for adults”, which somewhat underplays the provocative political undertow of some of the projects described within, whether it is his epic reenactment of the “Battle of Orgreave” during the miners’ strike or his 2019 film Putin’s Happy, which captures the febrile atmosphere of the Brexit protests in Parliament Square. It's filled with fun anecdotes about his life and work, and interviews about how his works come together. These include his inflatable Stonehenge for the Glasgow International festival, the Miners’ Strike (his Battle of Orgreave film), bats (a subject in at least three of Deller’s works), Andy Warhol (whom he met in 1986), the links between the Industrial Revolution and Heavy Metal, and hen harriers pecking out the eyes of a Tory MP (featured in his mural against grouse shooting created for the Venice Biennale).
