Rashid Johnson: Anxious Audience
W032694 | $32.50
Exhibition Catalog
Power Plant Contemporary Art Gallery, Toronto, 2019. Published, 2020. Power Plant Pages, 14.
128 pp. Well illustrated (all col.) and 14 ref. ills. 20 x 15 cm. In English. Hardcover.
ISBN 9781894212786
Johnson’s work harnesses the rich symbolism and histories of varied materials that have personal meaning and, at times, are signifiers of greater African American cultural identity. Black soap, made from the ashes of burned plant matter and commonly used in West Africa, is mixed with wax and applied as pigment onto the white tiled surface—for Johnson, a way of complicating associations of cleanliness and healing.
