Through his innovative use of form, materials, and process, Puryear's work exemplifies the expressive potential for abstraction in our time. This book highlights the global histories that have shaped Puryear's practice, offering a fresh and timely perspective on his art. It emphasizes the unique ways that the artist combines the diverse histories of making that he has encountered throughout his travels, observations, research, and study. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA range of eminent thinkers and makers, including Thelma Golden (b. 1965), Maya Lin (b. 1959), Billie Tsien (b. 1949), and Kerry James Marshall (b. 1955)--some of whom are longtime interlocutors of Puryear--provide a nuanced and multifaceted look at the significance and context of Puryear's work. These perspectives complement in-depth essays by a new generation of scholars and responses to Puryear's work by artists at earlier stages in their careers. The book's dramatic, oversize design and plentiful images allow the reader to clearly see the intricacies of the artist's celebrated work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDistributed for the Cleveland Museum of Art \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eExhibition Schedule: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eMuseum of Fine Arts, Boston\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e(September 27, 2025-February 8, 2026)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCleveland Museum of Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(April 12-August 9, 2026)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHigh Museum of Art\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(September 25, 2026-January 17, 2027)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmily Liebert\u003c\/b\u003e is the Lauren Rich Fine Curator of Contemporary Art, Chair of Art of the Americas and Modern and Contemporary Art at the Cleveland Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 240\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.13 x 12.72 x 10.85 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 21, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44815052963942,"sku":"9780300283921","price":74.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/e7XCzjCch19780300283921.webp?v=1771862099","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/martin-puryear-nexus-hardcover","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
