About This Item
Berkeley: University of Califormia, 1998. 167pp. Stiff pictorial boards. 100's of illustrations, many full page color. A hint of wear to a corner tip, otherwise like new. "This catalog is the first book-length publication devoted to the exquisite story quilts of contemporary artist Faith Ringgold. Combining painted images, handwritten texts, and quilting techniques, Ringgold weaves together modernist painting; feminist critique; postmodernist strategies of appropriation, parody, and montage; and personal memoir in a remarkable synthesis that takes on European modernism, African American folk art, and the "black aesthetic" of the 1960s and 1970s. The catalog accompanies an exhibition of The French Collection and The American Collection, a series of story quilts Ringgold has produced since 1990. ". First Softcover Edition. Softcover. Near Fine. 10 3/8" x 10 1/4".
