|   |   | HARTMANN BOOKSCindy Sherman: 2016Text by Betsy Berne.
This small, gorgeously designed and carefully edited book—available in grey and beige cloth—presents all 20 photographs of a new body of work that Cindy Sherman completed in 2016. In these photographs, reminiscent (conceptually but not formally) of her earlier Film Stills, Sherman enacts variations on the theme of aging Hollywood actresses of the 1920s. The series was inspired by her interest in early German Expressionist silent movies, which led her to further studies of the first wave of the Hollywood star system in the 1920s. Here, Sherman’s "actresses" are presented in the style of studio publicity shoots, against backgrounds that were carefully composed for each of the characters. With heavy make-up, elaborate hairdos, precisely chosen and arranged wardrobe and dresses, Sherman creates female characters that provoke a rich array of cultural associations. Cindy Sherman (born 1954) lives and works in New York City. She is represented by Metro Pictures. Works by Sherman are held in the Art Institute of Chicago; The Museum of Modern Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; the Madison Museum of Contemporary Art; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, among others.

| | FROM THE ARTBOOK BLOG CORY REYNOLDS | DATE 8/16/2016"Untitled #566" is reproduced from Cindy Sherman: 2016, a book that is perfect in its tiny charm. Just 6.5 x 8 inches and 64 pages, this shimmering clothbound volume presents 40 new works by the artist—the first in five years—which many will know from the tremendous press that they generated when they were shown at Metro Pictures in the spring. Depicting fictional Hollywood actresses of the 1920s just a bit past their prime, "they are definitely women of a certain age who refuse to disappear into a mythological background," according essayist to Betsy Berne. "There's a deep pathos in their expression, in their gestures, in their poses; it's unsettling, profound… All of them, even the goofy few among them, seem to be saying 'fuck you' with your assumptions of who we are—and your high-minded probing analysis behind why we are who you think we are." continue to blog | | | Hauser & Wirth PublishersISBN: 9783906915821 USD $45.00 | CAD $65Pub Date: 9/5/2023 Active | In stock
