Made of paper and ink. Paperback. Sourced from art book publisher Phaidon Press out of New York City, New York. Working with a variety of media that includes painting, sculpture, p hotography, video, and performance, Rashid Johnson has created a nuanced and iconographic body of work that connects literature, music, and art. Personal references and pervasive cultural narratives are interweaved with the legacy of modernist abstraction, producing what critics have labelled 'conceptual post-black art'. A precocious talent (his work was included in the seminal 'Freestyle' exhibition in New York in 2001), Johnson received the High Museum of Art’s David C. Driskell Prize, which honors contributions in the field of African-American art. Size: 11.375 H x 9.875 W in. | 160 pages Care: Use at your leisure. Show more
