Synopsis "Profiled (Lacma pac Prize, 2011) (in English)"
This artist book is the first in a series of PAC (Photographic Arts Council) Prize editions, published by the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Lead support is generously provided by the Photographic Arts Council of LACMA. This artist's book by Gonzales-Day includes a short essay, and over one hundred photographs taken of sculptures in museum collections in the United States and Europe. The project considers the emergence of depictions of race from the eighteenth to the twentieth century as well as the historical construction of whiteness within various sculptural traditions. Profiled offers a rare glimpse into museum storage collections and is as much about the present as it is the past. Cast, carved, burned, and broken, these sculptural works represent the shadows of people who once lived in this world, or in the imaginations of their makers; and as such, they are subtle reminders of the kinds of philosophical, metaphysical, spiritual, legal, and scientific claims that once depended upon appearance alone. This project integrates these motionless-yet multivalent-forms into the complex history of racial formation. Encompassing everything from memorials of emperors and kings to gods and goddesses, Orientalist follies, and racial typologies, together they provide a new perspective on what it means to be profiled in our own time. - Artist book edition (950 unsigned copies) - 144 pages, 12 x 10 inches - Laminated cover with Savanna cloth spine
