Item description from seller

Neuware - The first monograph on the sinuous, exhilaratingly colorful and pattern-filled portraiture of Amoako BoafoGhanaian painter Amoako Boafo has built a practice synthesizing the ways that art both reflects and perpetuates the power of representation. Amoako Boafo is the first monograph to comprehensively examine the artist's career to date. Heavily illustrated and featuring original contributions by Osei Bonsu, Rachel Cargle, Mutombo Da Poet and Aja Monet, the book also presents an insightful and expansive conversation with the artist by Paul Schimmel.Exclusively portraying individuals from the diaspora and beyond, Boafo invites a reflection on Black subjectivity, diversity and complexity. His portraits, notable for their bold colors and patterns, celebrate his subjects as a means to challenge portrayals that objectify and dehumanize Blackness. As Boafo has stated, 'the primary idea of my practice is representation, documenting, celebrating and showing new ways to approach Blackness.'Amoako Boafo (born 1984) studied at the Ghanatta College of Art and Design in Accra, Ghana, in 2007, before attending the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna, for his MFA. His first solo exhibition in the US, entitled I See Me, opened at Roberts Projects in 2019. That same year, Boafo was the first artist-in-residence at the new Rubell Museum in Miami, Florida. In 2020, he collaborated with Kim Jones, Dior Men's creative director, for Dior's Spring/Summer 2021 Men's Collection. In 2021, Boafo was selected by the Uplift Art Program to create the inaugural 'Suborbital Triptych' on the exterior panels of a Blue Origin New Shepard rocket, launched August 2021.…
