Multiplicity: Blackness in Contemporary American Collage - Getty Museum Store
By A Mystery Man Writer
Description
An engaging introduction to contemporary Black American collage brings together art by fifty artists that reflects the breadth and complexity of Black identity. Building on a technique that has roots in European and American traditions, Black artists have turned to collage as a way to convey how the intersecting facets of their lives combine to make whole individuals. Artists have assembled pieces of paper, fabrics, and other, often salvaged, materials to create unified compositions that express the endless possibilities of Black-constructed narratives despite the fragmentation of our times. As artist Deborah Roberts asserts, “With collage, I can create a more expansive and inclusive view of the Black cultural experience.” More than 50 artists are represented in the book’s 140 color images, with some creating original artworks for this project. Featured artists include such well-known figures as Mark Bradford, Lauren Halsey
