Ghada Amer
monograph
concept, book design, production
Cairo-born artist Ghada Amer moved to France at age 11. Her aesthetic language for the oppression of women has established her as a major and widely exhibited contemporary artist.
This is the first monograph to document the breadth of her art, which ranges from paintings, sculptures and drawings to prints, videos, performances and even garden works. Featuring two essays, a conversation, a chronology and a bibliography, this is the definitive resource on an influential artist.
We love to solve the puzzle of finding a design solution for the vast range of elements that comprise a large monograph like this. It’s about creating a structure that lets everything find its rightful place. To us, this masculine design here is perfect for this rock-solid artist.
