In mythology, art history and religious iconography, the apple has been imbued with every imaginable human desire. It has been a symbol of love, beauty, of immortality, death and poison, of temptation, sin and even redemption. From Adam and Eve to the trials of Heracles, to the art of Cézanne and Magritte, to Newton’s theory of gravity, the death of Alan Turing and the growth of Steve Jobs, the apple resonates throughout our collective culture. It is Snow White, William Tell, it is The Beatles and the Viking gods, it is even the American frontier.

Now, Barnaby Barford offers a celebration of this fruit, exploring its impact on the history of humankind. The Apple has become a recent feature of Barford’s eye-catching installations, whether ripe and healthy or in a state of decay. The Apple is Everything guides the reader through Barford’s work and ideology.
