Description

Kiwanga: A Catalogue of Art and Politics This catalogue provides an in-depth look at the work of Canadian-born artist Kapwani Kiwanga, whose installations, sculptures, performance lectures, and films explore marginalized histories and colonial economies. Drawing from her training in anthropology and the social sciences, Kiwanga's ethereal environments bring attention to the backstories of systems of authority and their embodied effects. Kiwanga's latest commission for the New Museum weaves together different layers of opacity and transparency through the use of large-scale curtains and mirrored surfaces, playing with natural light and darkness. The accompanying catalogue offers a comprehensive overview of Kiwanga's work in sculpture and installation, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in contemporary art and its relationship to politics and society. With 223 pages of high-quality images and detailed analysis, this catalogue is a valuable addition to any collection of modern art.
