Product Description
This is an important new book published to coincide with a major exhibition of Faith Tinggold's new work and Studio collection. While the book explores Faith's work in her studio and her personal artistic journey, it is also an encounter between one artist and another, between Faith and her collaborator Curlee Holton. The mix provides unique insights into the struggles and triumphs of a woman who is at once an activist and an artist and whose achievements are admired throughout the world.

Exhibit Companion November 15, 2009
Loves the View (Hawaii)
Faith Ringgold holds a singular niche in American art. Her quilts are famed and appear in museums, private collections and children's books.
This retrospective, like many books that accompany "one man shows" is a once over lightly. Like other exhibit companions, biographical information has all been printed before and kudos and admiration appear on every page. Like an exhibit catalog, the photos are too small to do real justice to the works.
The treat of this book is having a sampling of Ringgold's different periods and themes in between two covers.
While not the intent of a book like this, I hope to see, one day, a full scale biography of this unique person and how her talent grew.
