Monica Lundy - Paperback

by Monica Lundy (Artist), Giuliana Benassi (Editor), Pompeo Martelli (Text by (Art/Photo Books))

Materially rich portraiture of disenfranchised faces lost to history, rediscovered through archival research

American artist Monica Lundy (born 1974) is known for her haunting and remarkably tactile historical portraiture commemorating marginalized populations, whose names and images she culls from antiquarian ledgers and compendia: mental hospital patients, sex workers, prison inmates and more.
