Amy Sherald: The World We Make
This comprehensive monograph introduces acclaimed painter Amy Sherald, renowned for her simplified realist portraiture featuring African American subjects set against vibrant monochrome backdrops or everyday scenes. Recognized globally after being selected by former First Lady Michelle Obama for her official portrait in 2018, Sherald made history as the first African American woman to receive this prestigious commission.
The monograph, released in conjunction with her solo exhibition at Hauser & Wirth London in 2022, includes reproductions of Sherald's recent works, illustrations of earlier paintings, and an intimate look into her artistic process through in-studio photographs.
