Author: Hurley, DenzilThis book is the first major publication on painter Denzil Hurley. Hurley’s interests in modular forms and structures led him to consider the interconnectivity of paintings and signs, material and meaning, presence and absence, and the languages of painting and speech. The catalog showcases Hurley’s final paintings, a mixture of reductive post-conceptual painting and provisional construction methods of the African diaspora, including his spare “stick” and “glyphs” series.The Barbados-born, Seattle-based painter Denzil Hurley (1949–2021) was a quietly influential figure in the art world throughout his life, dedicating much of his time to teaching at the University of Washington and to championing other artists. This volume was published in tandem with an exhibition of his work at Canada.ISBN 9781941753583. Inventory Press/Canada. hb. 112 pages. 60 colour ills. 30.5 x 21 cm.available
