Carrie Mae Weems: Three Decades of Photography and Video (Frist Center for the Visual Arts)

The work of contemporary artist Carrie Mae Weems (b. 1953) hits hard with a powerful mix of lived life and social commentary. Since the late 1970s, her photographs, films, and installations have become known for presenting realistic and authentic images of African Americans while confronting themes of race, gender, and class. This book, the first major survey of Weems’s career, traces the artist’s commitment to addressing issues of social justice through her artwork. Her early photographs, which focused on African American women and families, have since led to work that examines more general aspects of the African diaspora, from the legacy of slavery to the perpetuation of debilitating stereotypes. Increasingly, she has broadened her view to include global struggles for equality and justice.

This beautifully illustrated book highlights over 200 of Weems’s most important works. Accompanying essays by leading scholars explore Weems’s interest in folklore, her focus on the spoken and written word, the performative aspect of her constructed tableaux, and her expressions of black beauty.

Artist Grace Graupe-Pillard inserts herself into classic art works. There’s a playfulness in the desire to place yourself in the work I’m sure we can all relate to.

The series is titled Grace Delving into Art.

great on many levels.
