A comprehensive and visually stunning mid-career survey of the exceptional American artists pioneering and influential work
Published in conjunction with a major exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, which will subsequently travel to Dallas and Los Angeles, this book delves into the diverse body of work of Laura Owens (b. 1970). It features an insightful introduction by Scott Rothkopf, critical essays, literary texts, and concise commentaries on a wide range of subjects that align with the artist's broad interests, encompassing folk art, needlework, comics, and wallpaper.

Reflections by over twenty fellow artists, collaborators, assistants, dealers, family members, and friends offer a diverse range of perspectives on Owens's work across different stages of her career, spanning from her high school years in Ohio to her current exhibition. A treasure trove of more than a thousand images, sourced from the artist's personal archive and largely unseen until now, includes personal correspondence, journals, academic transcripts, handwritten notes, source material, exhibition announcements, clippings, and installation photographs.

Together, these elements offer a rare and intimate glimpse into the world of an artist, exploring how they navigate the art world, witness the emergence of artistic movements, and witness the evolution of relationships over time.

Each book includes a specially designed set of stickers that readers can use to personalize their own cover.
