New York–based, Jamaican–born artist Nari Ward (born 1963) is internationally renowned for his installations made up of familiar, everyday materials and layered with social and historical references. Giving new life to a wide range of found objects chosen for their strong symbolic value, Ward addresses issues central to our time, from racial and social injustice to consumer culture, identity and a sense of belonging. This monograph presents the most up-to-date studies on the artist’s work, exploring in-depth aspects relating to the idea of performance, collaboration, sound and time-based practices. The catalog, designed by London–based studio Kellenberger-White, also includes a conversation between Ward and choreographer Ralph Lemon about their collaboration in the Geography Trilogy performance project (1997–2004), four large-scale installations exhibited for the first time since their original presentation.
