Over the past decade, she has gained national and international recognition for her room-filling tableaux depicting historical narratives haunted by sexuality, violence, and subjugation, but made using the genteel eighteenth-century art of cut-paper silhouettes. Over the years, the artist has used drawing, painting, colored-light projection, writing, shadow puppetry, and, most recently, film animation to narrate her tales. This exceptional publication features critical essays on the myriad social, racial, and gender issues present in Walker’s work as well as an illustrated lexicon of recurring themes and motifs in the artist's most influential installations.\u0026nbsp;A thirty-six-page visual essay was\u0026nbsp;created especially for this book by the artist.\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=2\u003e\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003cO:P\u003e\u003c\/O:P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial Unicode MS'; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003cFONT face=\"Times New Roman\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 7.5pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, November 11, 2007–February 3, 2008\u003cSPAN style=\"mso-spacerun: yes\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; \u003c\/SPAN\u003eUCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, February 17–April 11, 2008\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003cFONT size=1 face=TheSans\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874812391688,"sku":"9783775719322","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775719322_eab21530-504b-4531-9874-bd349cefe125.jpg?v=1744105318","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15718-kara-walker","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
