Whether depicting former classmates from Yale, nude and in serene repose; street vendors near her home in Harlem; anonymous New Yorkers huddled on the subway; or her own students, posed largely in domestic interiors among their personal belongings, she explores how both public and private spheres can serve as frames for an inner life.This generously illustrated, oversized publication honors the larger-than-life scale of the artist's work. It is the first comprehensive monographic publication on Casteel’s work and includes texts by Dawoud Bey, Amanda Hunt and Lauren Haynes, and conversations conducted with the artist by Massimiliano Gioni and Thelma Golden.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 366mmItem Length: 279mmContributor: Dawoud Bey (Text by), Lauren Haynes (Text by), Amanda Hunt (Text by), Thelma Golden (Interviewer), Jordan Casteel (By (artist)), Massimiliano Gioni (Edited by), Lisa Phillips (Foreword by)Genre: Arts & PhotographyAuthor: Jordan CasteelRelease Year: 2020 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
