In the Studio: Jack Whitten

In the Studio: Jack Whitten is an essential companion to the work of the pioneering African American artist, whose revolutionary approach to painting as a medium is widely considered to have changed the discipline. An elucidating new text by art critic Yinka Elujoba introduces Whitten’s pioneering practice — his relentless experimentation, unconventional tools and materials, and profoundly original oeuvre — while numerous archival images offer a uniquely intimate window into the artist’s process and inspirations.
