Hardback. Condizione: New. The first monograph on Lewis' sculptural practice inspired by the material inventiveness of Afro-Atlantic diasporic traditionsPublished with Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston.This is the first monograph dedicated to the sculptural practice of the Canadian artist Tau Lewis (born 1993). Lewis transforms found materials into intricate soft sculptures, quilts, masks and other assemblages through intensive processes such as hand sewing and carving. A self-taught artist, Lewis' practice is directed at healing personal, collective and historical traumas through the repetitive forms of creative labor she employs. She forages for materials charged with meaning-old clothing and photographs, as well as driftwood and seashells-which she often collects from her surroundings in Toronto, New York or outside her family's home in Negril, Jamaica. Lewis' upcycling relates to forms of material inventiveness practiced by diasporic communities, wherein working with objects close at hand is a reparative act to reclaim agency. Throughout, Lewis' interest lies in honoring and advancing these diasporic traditions and exploring, as she has said, "the transference of energy and emotion that occurs when an object is made by hand.".

Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 79 pages. Published in 2024. Retrospective Exhibition Monograph. The best book thus far on the art and achievement of Tau Lewis. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. Printed on pristine-white, thick coated stock paper in Italy to the highest standards. Without DJ, as issued. Published on the occasion of her eponymous exhibition in 2024. Presents "Tau Lewis". Massive, imaginatively and elaborately constructed stuffed dolls, masks, and talismans through which Tau Lewis conjures up the African Diaspora in her very own visual language that remains rooted in African ethnic art. "A Jamaican-Canadian artist working in a variety of mediums including hand-sewn, carved, and assemblage pieces, her environmentally-conscious use of reclaimed scraps and other found materials connects with African histories of resourcefulness. Lewis creates, from salvaged textiles and other found materials, anthropomorphic forms inspired by Yoruba mask dramas, which are spiritually activated by the wearer and the audience and by extension, their community. Referencing the work of the Nigerian playwright Wole Soyinka, Classical Greek drama and Roman mythology, yet also science fiction and even angelology, Lewis develops her characters' identities and narratives in an intermediary world that implicates our ancestral pasts, spiritual and cultural similitudes, and multiplanar existence" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Tau Lewis collectors. This copy is very boldly and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the half-title page by Tau Lewis. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary art book classic. As far as we know, this is the only such signed copy of the Exhibition Monograph available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws ("Very Good"). This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Lavishly illustrated with dazzling color plates. One of the most brilliant visual artists of our time. A fine copy. ISBN 1636811434. Signed by Author.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Tau Lewis's mythical sculptures create elaborate portals into fantastic worlds 'At 52 Walker, artist Tau Lewis transmutes the lifeblood of scrap objects into something sanctified. . . . I'm reminded that an art gallery can also be a temple.' - New York magazine Following her acclaimed presentation Divine Giants Tribunal at the 2022 Venice Biennale, Lewis has continued to create anthropomorphic forms inspired by those in Yoruban mask dramas-ones which are spiritually activated by the wearer and the audience and, by extension, their community. Conversing with spiritual and ancestral pasts, Lewis's works reinvent and reconsider narratives of Greek myths, theater, and death. In this body of work, the artist reexamines apocalyptic themes as an opportunity for reconstruction and transformation. Documenting and expanding on Lewis's exhibition at 52 Walker titled Vox Populi, Vox Dei, this catalogue contextualizes the artist's investigations and expressions. Poetry by the multidisciplinary artist and activist Yves B. Golden complements Lewis's otherworldly motifs. With a curator's note by Ebony L. Haynes, this publication also features an essay by Tiana Reid that explores Lewis's practice, drawing connections between sources that range from Joy James to Frederick Douglass.
