Description
Chila Burman's first major monograph celebrates four decades of her vibrant and thought-provoking art. This collection brings together paintings, installations, photography, prints, video, and film works that showcase the artist's radical feminist practice and joyful use of color. Burman's work explores themes of Asian femininity, female empowerment, imperialism, colonialism, race, and class, often incorporating elements of popular culture, Indian mythology, and fashion. Her unique style challenges stereotypes and champions equality, making this book a valuable resource for understanding her artistic vision. Featuring a diverse range of works from Burman's extensive career, this monograph provides insight into the ideas central to her practice and her distinctive approach to art-making.
