Kent Monkman : life & work

Madill, Shirley 1952- (author.).

Summary: "Kent Monkman: Life & Work" is the first comprehensive book on one of the most important and internationally celebrated contemporary artists in Canada. Subversive, bold, unapologetic, and unforgiving, the work of Kent Monkman (b.1965) has left an unmistakable mark on contemporary Canadian art. Since the early 2000s, Monkman, accompanied by his time-travelling, shape-shifting, gender-fluid alter ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle, has redefined the Canadian cultural landscape. Riffing on techniques of the Old Masters, Monkman first found fame by recreating notable landscape paintings and populating them with Indigenous visions of resistance.
