Description

Amy Sherald: The World We Make The first comprehensive monograph on acclaimed portraitist Amy Sherald, this book accompanies her solo exhibition at Hauser & Wirth London in fall 2022. Featuring reproductions of recent works and early paintings, as well as an intimate glimpse into the artist's process through in-studio photographs. Newly commissioned texts include an art historical analysis by Jenni Sorkin, a meditation on Sherald's portraiture by cultural scholar Kevin Quashie, and a conversation between Sherald and acclaimed author Ta-Nehisi Coates. This book offers a unique insight into the artist's practice and the politics of representation in her work. Born in Georgia in 1973, Amy Sherald has established herself as a leading figure in contemporary art, with solo exhibitions at Hauser & Wirth and Spelman College Museum of Fine Art among others.
