219 pages, illustrations (chiefly colour); 24 cm. Produced on the occasion of the 2017 Whitney Biennial, held at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, March 17 to June 11, 2017, and curated by Christopher Y. Lew and Mia Locks. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Light shelfwear to wraps. *** "Always highly anticipated and beautifully packaged, this book is an essential record of the current trends in contemporary art in America. Since its introduction by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney in 1932, the Whitney Biennial has charted new developments in art and brought emerging artists to light. The first to be held in the Whitney's critically acclaimed new building in Manhattan's meatpacking district, the 2017 Biennial is curated by Christopher Y. Lew and Mia Locks. Lew and Locks are working in collaboration with a small group of advisors, including Scott Rothkopf, Negar Azimi, Gean Moreno, Aily Nash, and Wendy Yao. With a history of exhibiting work by the most promising and influential artists and provoking debate, the Biennial (the Museum's signature exhibition) is the most important survey of the state of contemporary art in the United States." - Publisher. *** Includes: Zarouhie Abdalian - Basma Alsharif - Jo Baer - Eric Baudelaire - Robert Beavers - Larry Bell - Matt Browning - Susan Cianciolo - Mary Helena Clark - John Divola - Celeste Dupuy-Spencer - Rafa Esparza - Kevin Jerome Everson - GCC - Oto Gillen - Samara Golden - Casey Gollan and Victoria Sobel - Irena Haiduk - Lyle Ashton Harris - Tommy Hartung - Porpentine Charity Heartscape - Sky Hopinka - Shara Hughes - Aaron Flint Jamison - Kaya - Jon Kessler - James N.

Since its introduction by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney in 1932, the Whitney Biennial has charted new developments in art and brought emerging artists to light. The first to be held in the Whitney’s critically acclaimed new building in Manhattan’s meatpacking district, the 2017 Biennial is curated by Christopher Y. Lew and Mia Locks. Lew and Locks are working in collaboration with a small group of advisors, including Scott Rothkopf, Negar Azimi, Gean Moreno, Aily Nash, and Wendy Yao. With a history of exhibiting work by the most promising and influential artists and provoking debate, the Biennial—the Museum’s signature exhibition—is the longest running survey of American art.
This handsome book features texts and images representing the Biennial participants, artists who work in a variety of media including painting, sculpture, photography, film, and performance, as well as essays by the two curators and contributions by the advisors. As a record of the artists and ideas presented in this important survey exhibition, this catalogue serves as an essential resource on current trends in contemporary art in the United States.
