First published to accompany a 2011 exhibition, this catalogue features three new paintings that bring Bridget Riley's exploration of the circle from the wall to the canvas, and from black and white to colour. By placing Riley’s new paintings in relation to her early gouaches, this publication highlights new directions taken by the famous British artist.

Through the layering of circles of yellow and orange in her exploration of interplaying colours, Riley asks the viewer's eye to continuously adjust as the shapes grow, compress and dance across the canvas.

Full-colour illustrations are accompanied by a conversation between Riley and Robert Kudielka from 1978, in which the artist discusses her move away from the blacks, greys and whites of her 1960s works and towards the use of the curve ‘as a rhythmic vehicle for colour’.

Robert Kudielka is Professor Emeritus of Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art at the Hochschule der Künste in Berlin and a curator. He is a noted scholar on the works of Bridget Riley and has published numbers books on, and with, the artist.
