Sonny Assu : a selective history / Sonny Assu with Candice Hopkins, Marianne Nicolson, Richard Van Camp, Ellyn Walker; foreword by Janet Rogers. Heritage, 2018. Call #: 709.71 A851 Subjects Assu, Sonny, 1975- -- Criticism and interpretation.   First Nations artists.   Kwakiutl art.   Indigenous art -- Canada.   Art, Canadian. ISBN:  9781772031706 (pbk.) Description:  221 p. : col. ill. ; 26 cm. Summary:  "Stunning retrospective highlighting the playfulness, power, and subversive spirit of Northwest Coast Indigenous artist Sonny Assu. Through large-scale installation, sculpture, photography, printmaking, and painting, Sonny Assu merges the aesthetics of Indigenous iconography with a pop-art sensibility. This stunning retrospective spans over a decade of Assu's career, highlighting more than 120 full-colour works, including several never-before-exhibited pieces. Through analytical essays and personal narratives, Richard Van Camp, Marianne Nicolson, Candice Hopkins, and Ellyn Walker provide brilliant commentary on Assu's practice, its meaning in the context of contemporary art, and its wider significance in the struggle for Indigenous cultural and political autonomy. Exploring themes of Indigenous rights, consumerism, branding, humour, and the ways in which history informs contemporary ideas and identities, Sonny Assu: A Selective History is the first major full-scale book to pay tribute to this important, prolific, and vibrant figure in the Canadian contemporary art world."--Publisher.
