Forlagsbeskrivelse af Paul Mpagi Sepuya: Dark Room A-Z

Paul Mpagi Sepuya reflects on the methodologies, strategies, and points of interest behinda single, expansive body of work at a pivotal moment in his career.Paul Mpagi Sepuyas photography is grounded in a collaborative, rhizomatic approach to studio practice and portraiture. This volume unpacks his Dark Room series (201621), offering a deep dive into the thick network of references and the interconnected community of artists and subjects that Sepuya has interwoven throughout the images. The excavation and mapping of intellectual and artistic data points across the artists work is presented through three distinct voices, allowing for a comprehensive cross-referencing of conceptual categories. Each category is alphabetized and illuminated via new texts by curator and scholar Gkcan Demirkazik; selections from previously published texts about the work by critics, colleagues, and friends; quotations of other writers work that inspire the artist; as well as writings by the artist on his thematic preoccupations as they appear and reappear throughout this ongoing body of work. Dark Room AZ serves as an iterative return and exhaustive manual to the strategies and generative ways of working that have informed Sepuyas image-making over the past two decades.
