Author: Morris, Rebecca
Rebecca Morris has long been celebrated for her juxtapositions of thin, matte washes of colour with shimmering, metallic impasto. Teeming with opulently illustrated plates, this first major monograph on the artist volume provides insight into Morris’ practice through various vantage points, including texts from long-time collaborators of the artist and new voices alike. An additional section of the book traces Morris' own photo documentation of her studios over the 21-year period. Topics covered in this publication include the historiography of colour in Morris’ paintings as well as art historical contexts for her work. Today, Morris remains steadfast to an ethos of constant evolution and a rigorous commitment to experimentation in painting. As she wrote in a widely circulated manifesto from 2005: “Abstraction never left, motherfuckers.”The volume coincides with a new survey exhibition travelling from the Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles to the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago.
ISBN 9781636811222. DelMonico Books/Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. hb. 288 pages. 342 colour ills. 27.9 x 24.1 cm.
