Over the past two decades, Simone Leigh has created artwork that situates questions of Black femme-identified subjectivity at the center of contemporary art discourse. Her sculpture, video, installation and social practice explore ideas of race, beauty and community in visual and material culture. Leigh's art addresses a wide swath of historical periods, geographies and traditions, with specific references to materials across the African diaspora, as well as forms traditionally associated with African art and architecture. This publication includes substantial new scholarship addressing Leigh's work across mediums and topics. The volume, timed with a major exhibition and national tour of the artist's work, includes contributions by her longtime collaborators, new scholars who add diverse insights and perspectives, and a conversation highlighting Leigh's voice. Additionally, generous and lushly illustrated plates feature her critically acclaimed work for the 59th Venice Biennale and works made throughout her 20-year career. A special section featuring Leigh's research images gives access to Leigh's research methodologies and encourages readers to fully engage with all aspects of Leigh's work. This monograph provides a timely opportunity to gain a holistic understanding of the complex and profoundly moving work of this groundbreaking artist." -- Publisher's website. 545 0 $a "Over the last twenty years Simone Leigh has created a multi-faceted body of work incorporating sculpture, video, and installation, all informed by her ongoing exploration of Black female-identified subjectivity. Leigh describes her work as auto-ethnographic, and her salt-glazed ceramic and bronze sculptures often employ forms traditionally associated with African art. Her performance-influenced installations create spaces where historical precedent and self-determination commingle. "I am charting a history of change and adaptation," the artist has written, "through objects and gesture and the unstoppable forward movement of Black women." Simone Leigh was born in Chicago in 1967 and first began exhibiting her work in the early-2000s. She has had one-person museum exhibitions at the Guggenheim Museum, New York; The Tate Gallery, London; the Studio Museum in Harlem; and the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles among others. In 2014 she presented "The Free People's Medical Clinic" in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, a project commissioned by Creative Time. Her work was included in the 2012 and 2019 Biennial exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and she is the first artist to be commissioned for the High Line Plinth; her monumental sculpture Brick House was unveiled in April 2019. In 2022, Leigh represented the United States at the 59th Venice Biennale with her exhibition, "Simone Leigh: Sovereignty." Her work was also included in the Biennale's central exhibition, "The Milk of Dreams," for which she was awarded the Golden Lion for Best Participant." -- Biography taken from: $u https://matthewmarks.com/artists/simone-leigh 600 10 $a Leigh, Simone $v Exhibitions. 600 10 $a Leigh, Simone $x Criticism and interpretation. 650 0 $a African American sculptors $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a African American sculpture $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a African American women artists $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a African American artists $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, American $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Art, Modern $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Artists $z United States $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sculpture, American $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sculpture, Modern $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 7 $a ART / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a African American artists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799017 650 7 $a African American sculptors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799351 650 7 $a African American sculpture. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799352 650 7 $a African American women artists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799474 650 7 $a Art, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00815895 650 7 $a Art, Modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816615 650 7 $a Artists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00817559 650 7 $a Sculpture, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01109531 650 7 $a Sculpture, Modern. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01109788 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Exhibition catalogs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01424028 700 1 $a Leigh, Simone, $e contributor. $e contributor. 700 1 $a Medvedow, Jill, $e writer of foreword. 700 1 $a Hartman, Saidiya V., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Silva, Denise Ferreira da, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Bradley, Rizvana, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Price, Yasmina, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Agard-Jones, Vanessa, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Miller, Sequoia, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Parker, Rianna Jade, $e contributor. 700 1 $a McKittrick, Katherine, $e contributor. 700 1 $a King, Daniella Rose, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Nelson, Steven, $d 1962- $e contributor. 700 1 $a Lynne, Jessica, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Rhodes-Pitts, Sharifa, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Sharpe, Christina Elizabeth, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Spillers, Hortense J., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Pullagura, Anni A., $e contributor. 700 1 $a Ochieng' Nyongo, Tavia Amolo, $e contributor. 700 1 $a McMillan, Uri, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Masilela, Nomaduma Rosa, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Gaines, Malik, $e contributor. 700 1 $a O'Grady, Lorraine, $e contributor. 700 1 $a Brand, Dionne, $d 1953- $e contributor. 710 2 $a Institute of Contemporary Art (Boston, Mass.), $e host institution. $e organizer, $e host institution. 710 2 $a DelMonico Books, $e publisher. 710 2 $a Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, $e host institution. 710 2 $a Los Angeles County Museum of Art, $e host institution. 710 2 $a California African-American Museum, $e host institution. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219012108.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6ED19E889E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
