|   |   | Glenn Ligon: Work, Work, Work, Work, Work, WorkPoem by Gregg Bordowitz.
 A slipcased overview of Ligons recent studio practice, including his painterly elaborations on a James Baldwin essayFor four decades, New Yorkbased artist Glenn Ligon (born 1960) has explored Americas literature and fraught racial history through works in a few signature mediums such as text-based paintings and neon. This volume, through studio documentation and a new text by fellow artist and New Yorker Gregg Bordowitz, focuses on various aspects of Ligons art-making. Glenn Ligon features newer works by the artist, such as a monumental new painting from Ligons ongoing Stranger in the Village series, begun in 1997. In the series, Ligon renders excerpts from novelist James Baldwins 1953 essay of the same name, which describes the writers experiences as an African American in a small town in Switzerland. Measuring 45 feet long, this triptych will mark the first time Ligon has used the entire text from Baldwins essay in a single work.
