Steve McQueen: Works 1993-2012

Steve McQueen (b. 1969) is one of the most significant contemporary British artists. The catalog accompanying the largest exhibition to date of this artist's work provides a detailed insight into his complex and unusual oeuvre. Installations, photographs, and film from every period of his artistic career are shown.

McQueen's early works are characterized by an experimental approach to cinematic history and the dynamic between black and white, particularly in the aesthetic of silent film. Over the past ten years this aspect of his work has been joined by an exploration of the boundaries between the documentary and the narrative.
