A comprehensive monograph on the work of KAWS, one of the most
sought-after artists and creative forces of our time Drawing from
Pop art traditions, KAWS's work straddles the line between fine art
and popular culture, crossing the mediums of painting and
sculpture, along with fashion, merchandise, vinyl toys, and, most
recently, augmented reality. This book, made in close collaboration
with the artist, features his most well-known works alongside
sketches, preparatory drawings, and never-before-seen images of
KAWS at work, revealing the meticulous process behind his iconic
artworks. Accompanying a major retrospective exhibition at the
Brooklyn Museum, it captures the artist's unique ability to reshape
the ways we think about contemporary art and culture today.

Celebrated for his classically styled paintings that depict African
American men in heroic poses, Kehinde Wiley is among the expanding
ranks of prominent black artists - such as Mickalene Thomas, Yinka
Shonibare, Kerry James Marshall and Sanford Biggers - who are
reworking art history and questioning its depictions of people of
colour. This volume surveys Wiley's career from 2001 to the
present. It includes early portraits of the men Wiley observed on
Harlem's streets, and which laid the foundation for his acclaimed
reworkings of Old Master paintings by Titian, van Dyke, Manet and
others, in which he replaces historical subjects with young African
American men in contemporary attire: puffy jackets, sneakers,
hoodies and baseball caps. Also included is a generous selection
from Wiley's ongoing World Stage project; several of his enormous
Down paintings; striking male portrait busts in bronze; and
examples from the artist's new series of stained-glass windows.
Accompanying the illustrations are essays that introduce readers to
the arc of Wiley's career, its critical reception, and ongoing
evolution. Published in association with the Brooklyn Museum, New
York.

Robert Smithson Unearthed: Drawings, Collages, Writings, the first
full survey of this artist's work, reevaluates its larger resonance
and its place in the historical development of recent art. Eugenie
Tsai's re-presentation of the work of Smithson expands our
understanding of his achievement. Looking beyond the Minimalist
structures and the earthworks for which she is best known, she
explores his intellectual and aesthetic roots, his early
imaginings, and discovers a richer range of personal affect in
Smithson's art than we had been led to expect.
