Condition: NUOVO. Gregory R. Miller & Co. cm.25x29,5, pp.160 illustrato a colori. legatura editoriale cartonata, copertina figurata a colori. Born and raised in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, conceptual artist Kambui Olujimi (born 1976) works across installation, sculpture, painting, video and film to explore the liberatory possibilities of boundlessness. Through an exploration of weightlessness, Olujimi contests the fixed and singular ideas of Blackness as ascribed within persisting colonial imaginations. North Star brings together over five years of Olujimi's artwork, including large-scale watercolor paintings, video installation, ceramic sculpture, a short film and excerpts from a two-day symposium commissioned by Lincoln Center for Performing Arts. Presented in this full color monograph, these works collectively imagine what new relationships we might chart between our bodies, the self and the universe, once deeply entrenched forces are replaced by boundlessness and possibility. This book was made possible through the generous support of the Mellon Foundation.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. An expansive survey of video, installation and more from Arthur Jafa, whose practice is "a counterpunch to anyone who wants to put people of color in their place" (Wes Hill)Published with LUMA Arles. Over several decades, American filmmaker and artist Arthur Jafa has constructed a compelling body of work that defies categorization. Both powerful and lyrical, his practice combines a profoundly unsettling blend of images and histories. Bringing together affective memories that touch on US history, violence, repression, modalities of survival and how these exist in the production and dissemination of images, music, sound and time-based media, Jafa reflects on the ontology of race and Blackness. This richly illustrated catalog reproduces key works from Jafa's wide-ranging oeuvre and explores the philosophical, historical and artistic implications of his practice, featuring essays and a series of conversations between Jafa and key practitioners working in the fields of cinema, arts and theory.Arthur Jafa (born 1960) grew up in Mississippi, where his lifelong fascination with found imagery manifested in his childhood hobby of assembling binders of photographs culled from various sources.
