Darren Almond's work takes as its subject matter the recurring themes of time, memory, human labour and exploitation in various geographical parts of the world.
Almond is an avid traveller and since the beginning of his career in the mid 1990s he has experimented with films, video-installations and photography in remote regions. He has also made kinetic sculptures, the best-known of which are made with digital clock mechanisms.
Index was published for Almond's 2008 solo exhibition at Parasol Unit in London where he showed two films, shot separately in China and Indonesia; a series of photographs taken in Norilsk and Monchegorsk, Siberia; and a time-based wall sculpture.
Index is a book in two parts. The first catalogues the exhibition, while the second provides a retrospective of the artist's work.

I haven't used this book yet, but as a novice oil painter, it will be very helpful in learning techniques used by the masters, albeit quite basic approaches and styles. It gives step-by-step guidance via illustrated tutorials, basic information such as equipment and the colours to use in each exercise areprovided. What could possibly go wrong?
This is a comprehensive overview of works of art from earliest times until the late 20th century. It's immediately accessible to read and engaging. My only grumble is that many of the photos are small and in black and white. The text and the works themselves merit better treatment, but that would make this already weighty tome unmanageable and prohibitively expensive. I'm very pleased with this book and will enjoy it.
A lovely book, found by chance and given as a gift.
Bought as Present and they loved its unique format
Fascinating and good comparative text and images.
Excellent book, in depth text and plates that I haven't seen before, perfect!
Great book about the man of 60s music
Beautiful book - made a great gift. Thank you x
I bought to wrap up presents but it somehow felt wrong to cut up these wonderful graphic designs!
Great. Rapidio!
Another great read
A great read
Nice selection of books. Competively priced. Easy to order online. Super fast delivery. The books were really well packed and protected which was impressive. Will definitely shop again at Books About Art.
Great wee book about the worlds best ever band!
Great selection of topics giving a good set of projects for any photographer to have a go at
