"Far more than a history lesson, In Plain Sight is filled with strange encounters, unnerving juxtapositions, soulful laments. Daunting as well as uplifting, risky and theatrical." -Adrian Searle, the Guardian
This the first major book on the Nassau- and New York-based artist Tavares Strachan (born 1979) to be published since 2014. Focusing on his extraordinary exhibition at Marian Goodman Gallery London in 2020, this hardcover book features a lenticular print on the cover and more than 120 full-color images.
The book includes a new text by esteemed writer and art critic Adrian Searle.
Strachan's exhibition In Plain Sight combined painting, sculpture, installation, music and performance within an immersive, site-specific experience. Many elements of the exhibition were hidden, revealing new and inner worlds to the visitors who discovered them.
The experience and the works on view prompted visitors to reconsider the Western canon, learn the value of forgotten histories and invite new voices to participate. This fully illustrated catalog presents a unique and lively documentation of this exceptional show.
