Kerry James Marshall: painting and other stuff

The catalogue for the show on the work of Kerry James Marshall (Alabama, 1955), bringing together the joint work of four museum institutions, presents an artist who remains unknown to the European viewer. From a distinctly Afro-American position and a variegated practice, with painting one among many facets, Marshall’s work embodies a diverse approach to art history in myriad perspectives. Working around life and the history of African American subjects, he contrasts the usual representations while also commemorating the complexity of their condition.
