A collection of Glenn Ligon's writings and interviews, edited by James Hoff, which brings together major texts, most of which post-date the sold-out 2011 anthology "Yourself and the World."
Edited by James Hoff, this publication presents a generous yet discriminating selection of Glenn Ligon's writings and interviews, most of which post-date the sold-out 2011 anthology "Yourself in the World". The new book brings major essays and interviews to a wider readership after their original publication in exhibition catalogues, art magazines, and online.
Alongside eloquent and insightful essays on cultural phenomena such as "The Wire" and artists including David Hammons, Andy Warhol, Julie Mehretu, and Thomas Hirschhorn, the book also sheds light on the artist's biography and opinions in a number of interviews. With an introduction by MoMA curator Thomas (T.) Jean Lax and a new afterword by Ligon himself.
