Quinn's images combine bodily fragments derived from sources that include both personal images and those culled from the media. Working without preliminary sketches, he forms composite images of faces and figures that resemble collages but are in fact painted and drawn. Developed with oil paint, charcoal, gouache, oil stick, and pastel, these works address the hybridity of perception and identity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book includes over 125 color plates of Quinn's paintings, as well as studio photographs that offer an insight into his process. An introduction from Larry Gagosian is followed by an essay by Andrew Winer which discusses his work in terms of representation, abstraction, and memory. The volume also features a conversation between the artist and Sarah Elizabeth Lewis that offers firsthand reflections on the painter's practice, as well as an essay by Dawn Ades contextualizing Quinn's work in relation to Modern and contemporary collage, painting, and portraiture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSarah Elizabeth Lewis\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor of humanities and of African and African American studies at Harvard University, and the founder of Vision \u0026amp; Justice, an initiative that generates original research, curricula, and programs that reveal the foundational role visual culture plays in generating equity and justice in America. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eDawn Ades\u003c\/b\u003e is professor emerita of the history and theory of art at the University of Essex, a fellow of the British Academy since 1996, professor of the history of art at the Royal Academy, and a former trustee of Tate and the National Gallery.
