Descripción
A career-spanning survey of the celebrated and resonant work of Arthur Jafa.
Across his career, Arthur Jafa has sought to find new visual forms to capture the rhythm and realities of Black life in America. Arthur Jafa: I Am Tony is the most comprehensive survey of his work to date, spanning over four decades of his career and more than twenty-five acclaimed works.
Richly illustrated with 165 images representing the full breadth of the artists practice, including his films, videos, installations, photographs, and sculptures, this expansive publication includes Jafas most acclaimed works, such as the resounding Love is the Message, The Message is Death (2016) and the Golden Lionwinning The White Album (2018), as well as other impactful large-scale video and film installations and a range of sculptural and photographic objects.
In his early work as a cinematographer through his more recent video installations, Jafa has been gradually building a filmic language whose syncopations and textures match the aspirations of Black popular music. As part of this task, Jafa has built a staggering visual archive of images that cuts across histories and arenas of culture. This material is cut, collaged, montaged, and rearranged into 'affective proximities' that illuminate and unsettle the ways that race is communicated and experienced through contemporary media today.
Confrontational and deeply affecting, Jafas work turns an unflinching eye toward the darkness of the past while embodying and mirroring our contemporary obsession with mass images and 'content.' Through prolonged and thoughtful engagement with social media, internet culture, cinematic history, and popular music, Jafa wields an arsenal of images across his various working mediums, communicating both the realities and appearances of contemporary Black life, along with its mass consumption, through film, video, sculpture, photography, and large-scale installations. His acclaimed and resonant films have captured the collective imagination and experience of America amidst the nations growing awareness of the long history of institutional violence directed toward the Black community, placing this awakening against a backdrop of the century-long ascension of Black culture, music, and entertainment to the forefront of our national identity.
Accompanying a major solo exhibition at the New Museum in New York, the book includes an interview with Jafa by Massimiliano Gioni, a roundtable discussion with Gary Carrion-Murayari, Ekow Eshun, Martine Syms, and Hamza Walker, and new contributions from preeminent scholars and writers, including Judith Butler, Mark Godfrey, J. Hoberman, Kara Keeling, Lawrence Rinder, and Simone White. Together, the exhibition and accompanying book will constitute the most comprehensive presentation, to date, of one of the most important and influential artists of this generation.
