Prize by Curtis Kulig 'Hand-Signed Artist Book'

About the Item

Curtis Kulig "Prize", signed artist monograph Published on the occasion of the 2018 New York exhibition prize, Curtis Kulig (at agnès b), the publication features 40 mixed-media works on paper that explore the nuanced and poetic movement of professional boxing. Hardcover first edition (2018); 96 pages. Hand signed by Kulig on the interior first page Introduction by Curtis Kulig featuring an essay by Karen Wong and a story by Max Blagg. 9.25 x 9.25 inches. New/excellent condition. Obtained directly from artist. Curtis Kulig is best known for his iconic “Love Me” campaign that became a public art sensation and propelled him into the spotlight. With its message of hope and optimism, the slogan took on a life of its own, resulting in worldwide recognition and numerous successful commercial partnerships for the artist. Excerpt from the Show Press Release "October 2, 2018, New York, NY… agnès b. is pleased to present the solo exhibition Prize by Curtis Kulig on view from October 11 to November 25, 2018. This new exhibition features an installation that includes more than 30 drawings, ceramics, a large-scale painting, and an 8mm film in which Kulig has invited Aska Matsumiya to develop a soundscape. All of the work captures the nuanced movement of professional boxing. Like dancers, boxers exist in the physical moment, the body is their medium, and every gesture is an articulation of strategy. The end result is exhaustion, and Kulig’s poignant illustrations give the viewer a chance to linger quietly in suspended time. Through ink, pencil, paint and film, the artist honors and toys with the seriousness of boxing." Related categories Vintage boxing. Muhammad Ali. Joe Frazier. Boxing photos. 1970s boxing. American boxers. Pop Art. Street Art.
