Ellen Gallagher, a renowned painter of her generation, emerged in the mid-1990s amidst the cultural wars and the contentious embrace of identity politics and multiculturalism in the art world. Caoimhín Mac Giolla Léith delves into the intricate depths of Gallagher's artistic creations, exploring themes such as identity, race, displacement, and the ecological environment. The author takes the reader on a journey from Gallagher's early years, examining her formative influences, to her engagement with inherited modernist forms like monochrome and grid, as well as the violence and division inherent in modernism itself. Additionally, the book explores Gallagher's phantasmagoric explorations of oceanic life, drawing upon natural science, the traumatic history of the Atlantic slave trade, and the speculative fictions of Afrofuturism. This comprehensive examination is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary art and the ways in which artists are pushing the boundaries of form and content.
