Description: New York, Munich: Delmonico Books, Prestel, published in association with the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, 2011. 30cm., hardcover, 157pp. illus., most in color. Exhibition catalogue. Publisher's summary : Ceaseless experimentation is the driving force behind Radcliffe Bailey’s extraordinarily diverse body of work. In the past decade alone he has created sculptures, paintings, installations, and works on paper, incorporating everything from coffee to glass to sheet music to tobacco leaves. This volume reproduces more than 70 works, many of which have never been published before, and considers Bailey’s work in a major essay and four shorter discussions. In these large- and small-scale pieces Bailey explores ideas of ancestry, race, memory, struggle, and sacrifice, including the artist’s own engagement with African sculpture in connection with an investigation into his family’s DNA.
