Zarina Bhimji(Whitechapel Exhibition Catalogues)

Format: Paperback

Condition: Very Good — £1.00
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Published in conjunction with a major retrospective, Zarina Bhimji's work - which questions representation and historical truth - is brought together for the first time.

Landscapes and buildings haunted by their layered histories are the protagonists in British artist Zarina Bhimji's photographs and large-scale film installations, with India and East Africa the repeat locations for her foray into the archaeology of place. Sound and picture combine to transform image into metaphor; politics into poetry.

This volume presents the first overview of Bhimji's work, from early installation pieces - such as She Loved to Breathe: Pure Silence (1987) - to her critically acclaimed film Out of Blue (2002), and much-anticipated latest work Yellow Patch (2011).

Accompanying a survey exhibition spanning 25 years of Bhimji's career, this volume includes an essay by art historian and writer TJ Demos in which he analyses what he calls Bhimji's 'Cinema of Affect', as well as an in-depth conversation between the artist and the exhibition's curators Achim Borchardt-Hume and Kathleen Bühler.
