This book was published to coincide with Hayley Tompkins' first solo exhibition in London which includes newly commissioned works, including a film, works on paper and painted, wall-hung objects. The book is intended as an extension to the exhibition and will include works made especially for the page which address a different form of viewing.

She has a forthcoming solo exhibition at Inverleith House, Edinburgh in Spring 2009 and has had solo exhibitions at Galerie Giti Nourbakhsch, Berlin; Spike Island, Bristol; Andrew Kreps Gallery, New York and The Modern Institute, Glasgow. She is known for her minimal installations of works on paper and sculptural elements. Her work hovers between abstraction and representation and art historical references range from Kazimir Malevich to Richard Prince and include Jasper Johns and Sonia Delaunay.
