Kim Anno: Rebel Splendor
Artist monograph for Kim Anno and Anglim Timble Gallery
Edited by Alla Efimova with contributions by: Marci Kwon, Tirza True Latimer, and John Zarobell
From Kim Anno: Making Space by Marci Kwon:
Rather than parcels of territory to be claimed, the world, for Anno, is a place to be together, act together, fight together. Her work refuses the distinction between the art world and the real world; they are one and the same.
From the introduction Alla Efimova:
The title of this book—Rebel Splendor—embodies the paradox of Kim Anno’s artistic practice. Covering nearly a quarter-century of work in diverse media and genres, the book brings together, for the first time, the many facets of Anno’s work while revealing a persistent tenor: she is a radical spirit who revels in the beauty of the world and its people. In paintings, experimental videos, murals, social practice projects, and documentary films, Anno infuses our outrage at injustice and the dread of natural catastrophes with a sense of magnificence and sumptuousness. Her compassion for humanity colors everything she does.
