This expanded edition of Gregory R. Miller's hugely successful first-ever monograph on Marilyn Minter from 2007 brings her public up to speed with the inclusion of works created over the past three years, including images from Minter's 2009 video "Green Pink Caviar," shown in New York's Times Square and featured in Madonna's recent Sticky and Sweet concert tour. Minter's ever-expanding reputation was established during the 1980s, when her work engaged formal aspects of painting as well as subject matter that remain central to her practice today. This publication features work from every period of a career that now spans over 40 years, and reproduces in full color nearly every painting Minter has made, along with a wide selection of her painterly photographs of the last several years. It also includes the seminal and haunting Coral Ridge Towers series of black-and-white photos that Minter took of her mother in 1969. Art historian Johanna Burton contributes a substantial essay that analyzes and elucidates all aspects of Minter's work; her text is complemented by a lengthy conversation between Minter and her friend, painter Mary Heilmann, as well as by "Twenty Questions," a project assembled by Matthew Higgs to which a wide range of artists, curators, friends and others with a unique connection to Minter have contributed. The design and production of this expanded edition have been superbly realized by the award-winning New York- and Amsterdam-based design studio, COMA. This monograph firmly establishes Minter's important and central position in contemporary art.

By jennsan11 (so cal) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Marilyn Minter (Hardcover)
Lots of high gloss images mixed with mirrored and frosted papers. This is a slick book full of color. I am not very familiar with Marilyn Minter though so I can't comment on the selection of work. This book turned me on to the artist!

This review is from: Marilyn Minter (Hardcover)
Have been waiting for this to come out for so long and at last it's here.
I have loved this women's work for years and it is wonderful to have such a detailed book on her works. Great quality in the photos and the text really gets you into what Marilyn is all about. Would have liked to have seen more of her shoe photos but hey you can't have everything your own way. Highly recommend this book to any fans. P.S. shame about the inclusion of Madonna. I didn't think it was really needed in such a smart book, but that's just me. Sorry Madonna. Pete.
