Jim Shaw : The End Is Here, Hardback Book

Jim Shaw : The End Is Here Hardback

Edited by Massimiliano Gioni, Gary Carrion-Murayari

Hardback

Description

Over the past thirty years, Jim Shaw has become one of America's most visionary artists, moving between painting, sculpture, and drawings, while building connections between his own psyche and the larger political, social, and spiritual history of America.

Shaw's imagery is mined from comic books, record covers, conspiracy magazines, obscure religious pamphlets, and other cultural refuse to produce a portrait of the American subconscious out of his personal obsessions.

Shaw, along with fellow Michigan native Mike Kelley, moved to California in the 1970s to attend Cal Arts and was one of a number of notable artists to emerge from the school in the early 1980s.

Shaw's work is distinguished by rigorous formal and structural analyses of neglected forms of vernacular culture.

Accompanying a major exhibition, this is the first major monograph devoted to the entirety of the artist's unique, multifaceted career.
