| Book Description | Michael Stipe presenting a series of works-in-progress that continue an exploration of contemporary portraiture, instinct and abstraction. Featured in 'How to Spend It' - Financial Times 'The book articulates portraiture in various mediums, such as plaster, concrete, plastics, bookmaking, ceramics, video, and darkroom photographic printing, blending classic snapshots of celebrity friends with abstract sculpture pieces. Much like the famous Picasso and Giacometti photographs, the book's strength comes from looking at it as an entirety, as a peek behind the curtain into a contemporary artist's atelier.' - Digital Camera World 'Stipe’s employ of light and dark and seemingly disparate elements, together with photographic harmonies, results in alluring visions.' - Printmag Classical and conceptual forms create a cohesive whole from seemingly disparate elements, and build what is hopefully an inclusive and complete vision, in which the familiar and unfamiliar are given equal grounding. These works-in-progress include plaster, concrete, rotocast plastics, ceramics, bookmaking, and darkroom photographic printing. Process and the documentation of process becomes a part of the whole. All of this is done in the buildup to a one person exhibition at the Ica Milano Foundation, opening in December 2023 into 2024. |
