This publication accompanies a major new exhibition of
Chicago-based artist Theaster Gates (b.1973), focussing on his
clay-based work, collaborative projects and large scale sculptures
and installations since 2005. Gates's interdisciplinary practice
draws on his training in both urban planning and pottery, resulting
in work which aims to instigate the creation of cultural
communities and the recirculation of art-world capital, all the
time considering the notion of Black space and ideology. Fully
illustrated with examples of pottery, sculptures, installations,
films and archive materials, the book also documents a new film by
Gates and features essays from leading craft historians and
writers. This in-depth exploration of Gates's work is timely and
relevant now in a world where a new generation are raising
questions through making, identity and activism.
