Kerry James Marshall - Harry N. Abrams 2000
Marshall creates lyrical images of African-American urban experience at the turn of the millennium. His scenes of family life in the public-housing projects and solid middle-class homes of black urbanites are layered narratives of social order and disorder, of family relationships and friendships, of memories and myths. Drawing upon a vast body of visual material from high and pop culture - films, pulp novels, fairy tales, newspaper photographs, and the fully panoply of art history - he creates vivid, dreamlike scenes as strange as they are familiar.
