Cindy Sherman is among the most influential artists of her
generation. Using herself as model, wearing a range of costumes and
portraying herself in invented situations, she interrogates the
imagery employed by the mass media, popular culture and fine art.
Whether using make-up, costumes, props and prosthetics to
manipulate her own appearance, or devising elaborate tableaux, her
work constitutes a highly distinctive response to contemporary and
earlier culture, whose stylistic tropes she appropriates and
quotes. This book is a selection of Cindy Sherman’s best loved
works available as perforated postcards. Grouped by series,
multiple postcards per page include both black and white
photographs and full colour images. Produced in close collaboration
with the artist, this fun package encourages appreciators to send
‘a piece of Cindy’ by mail.
