- Summary
- This catalogue explores the dichotomy between the artist?s work in the exhibition?s titular video, which examines the history of lynching and state-sanctioned violence in the United States, and a selection of abstract and thematic paintings. An essay situates the new video work in the trajectory of Pindell?s career and explores its relationship to the work of empathy and self-care important to Pindell?s creation of her paintings. An interview by Hans Ulrich Obrist, captures an early conversation with the artist about the exhibition?s film, an unrealized project of the artist?s since the 1970s. A subsequent interview by Ashley James, documenting a conversation with the artist from summer 2020, delves into the exhibition as well as Pindell?s groundbreaking career as one of the first Black curators at the Museum of Modern Art. Designed to evoke the tactility of Pindell?s paintings and her own process in making them, the catalogue?s soft fabric cover features a spine with exposed stitching and a custom typeface updated for this publication.0Text: Adeze Wilford, Howardena Pindell, Ashley James, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Alex Poots00Exhibition: The Shed, New York, USA (16.10.2020 - 11.04.2021).
