Dream in the Rhythm — Grace Wales Bonner. Published by The Museum of Modern Art.
More artist book than a traditional photobook or exhibition catalog, the fashion designer Grace Wales Bonner’s Dream in the Rhythm accompanies her current Artist Choice exhibition at MoMA. Like the show it accompanies, the book is a synesthetic exploration of photographs, sound, and text and includes the work of Greg Tate, Anthony Barboza, Amiri Baraka, Ming Smith among many others. Although distinct, both the show and book are not to be missed.
