Description
Richly illustrated catalogue of the works of one of the most significant contemporary artists practicing today. In his both powerful and lyrical works, Jafa consistently reflects on the ontology of race and of blackness.
Over several decades, Arthur Jafa has constructed a compelling body of work that defies categorization. Both powerful and lyrical, his practice combines a profoundly unsettling blend of images and histories from diverse contexts and backgrounds. Bringing together affective memories that touch on the history of the United States of America, violence, repression, modalities of survival, and how these exist in the production and dissemination of images, music, sound, and time-based media, Jafa reflects on the ontology of race and of blackness.
The catalogue explores the philosophical, historical, and artistic implications of Jafa's work, featuring essays and a series of conversations between Jafa and key practitioners working in the fields of cinema, arts, and theory.
