"This fascinating, conversation-based memoir of sculptor Andrew Logan is a jubilant celebration of the imagination."
Resplendent with personal photographs, and images of exhibitions, events, and the artist at work, this “in conversation with” compendium presents the life and work of sculptor, jeweller and performance artist Andrew Logan in dazzling, engaging fashion.
With questions posed by writer and art critic Andrew Lambirth, it’s a beautifully informative book for art-lovers, with its scope spanning the wider cultural landscape alongside Logan’s fascinating life and work. And all this radiates the transformative power of the imagination. In Logan’s words, “the imagination can take you anywhere.”
As Logan shares his artistic journey, including founding the Alternative Miss World in 1972, it’s a veritable who’s who of cultural movers and shakers across a clutch of decades. There are glamorous dinners and dances, life-changing travel experiences, exhilarating descriptions of art and the creative process – this is joie de vivre in memoir form.

Told in his own words, in response to questions from the writer and art critic Andrew Lambirth, this book chronicles Andrew Logan's life and work through expressive anecdote and factual recollection. Reflections is a look back, but also a look at the present and a look forward: it is about the meaning of Andrew's world and the sculpture he has made to fill it, and about his approach to art, to friendship and to living in London and Wales. The Alternative Miss World, founded by Andrew in 1972, is at the heart of his philosophy, not just the world's greatest drag act (though it is this too), but an exhilarating celebration of the transformative power of the imagination. Andrew's work, which is all about joy and beauty, is inspiring and uplifting. This book, based upon discursive interviews dealing with all periods of his career, explains and contextualises it fully for the first time.
