Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 112 p., illustrations. This is the first substantial publication devoted to the artist's practice, which spans more than two decades. Richly illustrated over 120 pages, The Promised Land showcases Michael Parekowhai's sculpture and photography in philosophical, political and art historical terms. Creator of GOMA's The World Turns 201112, Parekowhai's primarily sculptural works often play with scale and space, using humour to comment on the intersections between national narratives, colonial histories and popular culture. Including new and unique scholarship on the artist, with texts by exhibition curator and Deputy Director, Collection and Exhibitions, Maud Page, and former Warhol Museum director Thomas Sokolowski, this publication presents Parekowhai's works to Australian and international audiences and represents the Gallery's ongoing commitment to collecting, researching, exhibiting, publishing and interpreting art from the Asia Pacific region.
