Summary:"Published for Sam Gilliam's recent exhibition, Existed Existing, this book features new paintings, washi papers, and sculptural works by the artist. Courtney J. Martin discusses Gilliam's approach to exhibition-making and the evolution of his practice in her essay 'Imagine the Show on the First Day.' In 'The Circle With a Whole in the Middle,' poet, cultural theorist, and MacArthur Fellow Fred Moten illuminates Gilliam's work in dialogue with the aesthetic considerations of abstraction and Blackness. An interview by Hans Ulrich Obrist explores themes including family, music, peers, and poetry." -- Publisher's website
