Donald Rodney: Doublethink. Edited by Richard Hylton, Autograph ABP, May 2003, 112 pages, ISBN-13: 978-1899282906.
(Again, not stricly photography but heavily utilizes photographs in mixed media work.)
Doublethink presents the first in-depth assessment of the work by the late Donald Rodney. Employing a wide range of art forms in which self-portraiture and the body are often conduits for wider social and political narratives, Rodney’s art refuses easy categorisation and can be as humorous as it is poignant. – Doublethink spans two decades (1983 and 1997), charting a chronology of works in painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, and photography. – includes newly commissioned essays by Eddie Chambers and Virginia Nimarkoh which consider the formal aspects of Rodney’s art and the shifting artistic, social, and political contexts in which it was produced.
