"Bill Culbert is one of New Zealand's most celebrated artists. Light is the material of his art, 'both object, and the means by which objects are prerceived'. In Bill Culbert : making light work, the first substantial monograph on the artist's work, writer and critic Ian Wedde explores the ideas, materials and conditions that have formed Culbert's art over the past fifty years." -- Book jacket.
