Published on the occasion of the first full-career survey of Savannah-based artist Suzanne Jackson (born 1944) at the Telfair Museums in Savannah, Georgia, Five Decades illuminates a career that spans more than 50 years, across painting, drawing, theatre, costume design, dance, printmaking and sculpture. The book presents a unique selection of Jackson's artworks and explicates their relationships to identity, community, the natural world and the human body.0In addition to featuring new photo documentation and archival images, the book includes essays that contextualize Jackson's practice through the lenses of ecowomanism, materiality, an ethics of care and African American retentions. Five Decades complicates canonical and exclusionary narratives and timelines, opening up Jackson's work to new generations of artists, thinkers and doers to find inspiration in the singular contributions one person can make to collective culture. Exhibition: Telfair Museum of Art, Jepson Center, Savannah, USA (28.06.-13.10.2019).… (altro)

I don't think the service which the Telfair Museums has rendered the world by creating the Five Decades Retrospective, and which Suzanne Jackson herself has done by living her vision all these years, can be overstated. We're at a tipping point in history where this artist’s visualized insights stand among some of the most valuable tools available for engaging in critical discourses of existential consequence and designing strategies for confronting some of our most urgent social and political challenges.
What Jackson and her editor Rachel Reese have accomplished with this book is extraordinary. In fact, the entire FIVE DECADES project is a major achievement, especially in the current era when women's voices are emerging in many exciting, beautiful, and powerful ways. The book is also a wonderful contribution to ongoing celebrations of the Harlem Renaissance centennial. ( )

Incipit

Throughout her career, Suzanne Jackson has organized her life by prioritizing her desire to paint and to pursue her artistic concerns in their purest forms, a self-imposed mandate made in 1968 and an ethos that—while at times compromised or under threat—she has maintained as a guiding principle.--Rachel Reese (editor)
