SynopsisThis catalogue was produced on the occasion of Kori Newkirk: 1997-2007, an exhibition presenting work created after Kori Newkirk received his MFA from the University of California at Irvine through today. Newkirk is a celebrated multimedia artist whose practice is based on transforming everyday materials into loaded signifiers making viewers think not only about concepts of African-American culture and beauty, but also of new and ever-changing ways of making art. This 128 page full-color soft-cover catalogue with sixty illustrations illuminates how the varied but interrelated strands of Newkirk¿s practice have converged and developed over time. It is the first major publication devoted to Newkirk¿s work. It includes a detailed biography and exhibition history. It features essays by Huey Copeland, Dominic Molon and Deborah Willis, and a Q+A with Newkirk and Thelma Golden, Director and Chief Curator of The Studio Museum in Harlem. Newkirk, who was born in the Bronx, raised in Cortland, New York, and currently lives and works in Los Angeles, creates work informed by his whole life and experience.
