Sara Greenberger Rafferty: Studio Visit

This volume collects two decades of work by Brooklyn-based artist Sara Greenberger Rafferty, known for her material transformation of photographs and use of comedy as artistic strategy. The book is organised by material sensibilities around paper, plastic, glass, metal, fabric scraps and "garbage." It reconfigures the format of a monograph, sharing roughly 20 years of artwork through intimate studio documentation, sketches, notes and other ephemera.This chronology is punctuated by full-colour case studies of major works in photography, sculpture and installation. With writings from Rafferty and image descriptions by art historian Kate Nesin, this title also includes new writing by Kristan Kennedy and Oscar Bedford, as well as reprinted texts by Reverend Warren Debenham, media scholar Shannon Mattern and more. This title surveys Sara Greenberger Rafferty's cultural commentary through dynamic and conceptually rigourous art.
