How Contemporary Artist Glenn LigonS Expansive Body Of Work Mines American History And Literature To Ask Critical Questions About Modern Culture.October Files: Glenn Ligon (B. 1960) Presents The First Compilation Of Critical Discourse On The Multimedia Work Of One Of The Most Influential American Artists Of The Late Twentieth And Early TwentyFirst Centuries. Often Citing Or Annotating Past Literary (E.G., James Baldwin), Artistic (E.G., Andy Warhol), And Musical (E.G., Steve Reich) Interventions, LigonS Practice Imaginatively Explores The Contradictions Of Speech, Vision, Authorship, Identity, Blackness And Belonging In Works That Are At Once Historically Resonant And Materially Sensuous.Spanning LigonS Emergence In The Postmodern Multicultural Milieu Of New York In The Late 1980S And Early 90S, His Starring Turns At Documenta, The Venice Biennale, And Other International Exhibitions Of The 200010S, And His Formative Impact On Both New And Canonical Art Histories, This Volume Provides A Comprehensive Accounting Of The Questions Central To His Work In Painting, Sculpture, Video, Installation, And Print. With Texts By Writers From Wayne Koestenbaum To Rizvana Bradley, This File Not Only Plumbs The Depths Of LigonS Oeuvre, But Also Models The Various Approaches To Critical Writing That Have Defined Art And Culture Of The Past 30 Years.
