This monograph examines the portraiture of Amy Sherald, documenting her practice of painting African American subjects against stark, monochrome backgrounds. By removing figures from specific temporal or geographic contexts, Sherald challenges historical omissions in the Western art canon and explores the complexities of race and identity. The volume provides a comprehensive look at her technical approach and the cultural significance of her life-sized, frontal compositions.
