description: The canonical work of cultural criticism by the profoundly influential critic (Artnet), in a beautiful thirtieth-anniversary edition, featuring a new foreword by esteemed visual artist Mickalene Thomas \n \n Called one of the country's most influential feminist thinkers by Artforum, bell hooks and her work have enjoyed a huge resurgence of popularity since her passing in 2021. Her 2018 book All About Love has sold upwards of 700,000 copies, and posthumous tributes have credited her with being instrumental in cracking open the white, western canon for Black artists (Artnet). To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of her groundbreaking essay collection Art on My Mind, The New Press will publish a handsome, celebratory edition, featuring a new foreword by Tony-nominated producer and all-around creative phenom Mickalene Thomas and a new cover featuring original photos of bell hooks shot by African American photojournalist Eli Reed. This classic work, which, as the New York Times wrote, examines the way race, sex and class shape who makes art, how it sells and who values it, includes what Artforum calls incisive essays on the work of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Isaac Julien, Carrie Mae Weems, and Romare Bearden, among others. Her essays on Black vernacular architecture, representation of the Black male body, and the creative process of women artists, are complemented by conversations with Carrie Mae Weems, Emma Amos, Margo Humphrey, and LaVerne Wells-Bowie, which Kirkus Reviews calls excellent indeed, and a real contribution to our understanding of the situation of black women artists. \nThe canonical work of cultural criticism by the profoundly influential critic (Artnet), in a beautiful thirtieth-anniversary edition, featuring a new foreword by esteemed visual artist Mickalene Thomas \n \nSharp and persuasive. --The New York Times Book Review on the original publication of Art on My Mind \n In Art on My Mind, bell hooks, one of the country's most influential feminist thinker…
