<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A clothbound compendium of Theaster Gates' interdisciplinary exploration of artistic and religious representations of the Black Madonnas</strong></p><p>For his Kuntsmuseum Basel exhibition, Chicago-based multiartist Theaster Gates (born 1973) interrogates the mainstream art world's Eurocentrism through a multi-venue, multimedia exploration of the figure of the Black Madonna. <p/>A self-described "collector of collections," Gates draws upon his vast arsenal of interdisciplinary talents and personal archives to highlight the Black Madonna's presence in religion and art history. Including a printing workshop and performances by the artist's band, the Black Monks, this many-faceted program is as much a site of creation and conversation as it is one of critical engagement. <p/>This clothbound publication serves as an accompaniment to the exhibition and delves into Gates' methods, featuring pictorial reportage and new essays that highlight a number of complexities related to spirituality, Black identity, and artistic and political agency.</p>
