Synopsis
The first widely available monograph on Amy Sherald, this major publication marked the acclaimed artist's first solo show in Europe, combining vivid reproductions of Sherald's iconic work with in-the-studio photographs and newly commissioned texts. This major publication - the first widely-available monograph on Amy Sherald - accompanies the artist's exhibition at Hauser & Wirth London, marking Sherald's first solo show in Europe. Significant newly-commissioned texts include an art historical analysis by Jenni Sorkin, a mediation on the aesthetics and politics of Sherald's portraiture by Kevin Quashie, and a conversation between the artist and Ta-Nehisi Coates. Beautifully reproducing Sherald's recent paintings with an attention to their poignant details, this publication also illustrates a wide selection of earlier work alongside the essays and includes a series of in-the-studio photographs that provide an intimate glimpse into her process and practice., The long-awaited first major monograph on the iconic portraitist of Black Americans This is the first comprehensive monograph on acclaimed painter Amy Sherald, whose distinctive style of simplified realist portraiture features African American subjects rendered against colorful monochrome backdrops or in everyday settings. Sherald rose to fame after being chosen by former first lady Michelle Obama to paint her official portrait for the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC, in 2018, becoming the first African American woman to receive this honor. In addition to reproductions of Sherald's recent works, the book--published to accompany her solo exhibition at Hauser & Wirth London in fall 2022--includes illustrations of earlier paintings, as well as an intimate glimpse into Sherald's process and practice through a series of in-studio photographs. Newly commissioned texts include an art historical analysis of the artist's work by Jenni Sorkin; a meditation on the politics and aesthetics of Sherald's portraiture by cultural scholar Kevin Quashie; and a conversation between Sherald and acclaimed author Ta-Nehisi Coates. Amy Sherald was born in Georgia in 1973 and received her MFA in Painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art in 2004. She has been included in countless group shows at galleries and museums worldwide as well as the subject of solo exhibitions at Hauser & Wirth and Spelman College Museum of Fine Art, among others. Sherald lives in Baltimore and New Jersey.
