<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Introduction by Susan Krane. Text by Cassandra Coblentz, Kwame Anthony Appiah, Sarah Elizabeth Lewis. Interview by Senam Okudzeto.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>The Washington Post</i>'s Jessica Dawson recently wrote of New York-based artist Lyle Ashton Harris, Two decades into his career, Harris still concerns himself with the game of appearances and perception: how we present ourselves in public, how our bodies--and the meanings they carry--are received by others, how gender and race are constructed... He also reveals a poetic sensibility: a desire, shared by writers and poets, to make visible our complicated inner worlds. He acknowledges the ambivalences we carry. <i>Blow Up</i>, Harris' first retrospective monograph, published on the occasion of his 2008 traveling exhibition, which originated at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, features full-color reproductions from throughout his career: His white face self-portraits of the late 1980s, his collage-based work of the mid-1990s and his more recent Polaroid self-portraits, large-scale <i>Blow Up</i> collages and Ghana-based photographs. Designed by award-winning COMA, the volume includes several important new essays as well as a revealing conversation between Harris and artist Senam Okudzeto. Published in collaboration with the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art.
