Description
A book that feels less like documentation and more like confrontation.
IRR/RESPEKTIV surveys Kendell Geers’ practice through the language he knows best — provocation, resistance, and symbolic rupture. Violence and vulnerability sit side by side; politics, identity, and belief systems are dismantled and reassembled with deliberate friction.
The object itself mirrors the work: stark typography, saturated red, a cover that reads like a warning sign. It doesn’t politely sit on a shelf, it stares back.
Part monograph, part manifesto, this is Geers at full voltage. A sharp addition for collectors of contemporary African art, institutional critique, or anyone drawn to work that refuses neutrality.
Out-of-print and increasingly hard to find for collectors, curators, and readers interested in post-apartheid conceptual practice and politically charged contemporary art publishing.
