Marlene Dumas: Measuring Your Own Grave by Marlene Dumas, Connie Butler and Lisa Mark. Published by D.A.P./Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, 2008. 1st Ed Hardcover Exhibition Catalog. In her expressionistic drawings and paintings of the last three decades, acclaimed South African artist Marlene Dumas has focused on the human figure, probing themes of love, desire, despair and confusion in order to slyly critique social and political attitudes toward women, children, people of color and others who have historically been victimized.
