Book Description
This catalogue was published in conjunction with the exhibition “Kori Newkirk 1997-2007” held November 14, 2007 - March 9, 2008 at the Studio Museum in Harlem.
Kori Newkirk (b. 1970) is a celebrated multidisciplinary artist whose conceptual practice is based on transforming modest materials into loaded
signifiers that question both cultural and aesthetic notions of beauty. Newkirk elegantly blends medium and message-using photographs, wax, hair pomade, beads and neon lights-to forge a new paradigm in art practice. This survey
exhibition presents work produced since Newkirk received his MFA from the University of California at Irvine, includes a site-specific project and illustrates how interrelated strands of his practice have converged and
developed over time.
