As constant experiments with  color,  scale,  and  materials,  these  works  as  a  whole  reveal  the  continuity of  Weatherford’s  interest  in  human  experience,  both  personal  and  historical.Featuring  120  full-color  plates  and  expansive  installation  views,  this  volume—published  by  Gagosian  in  association  with  the  Frances  Young  Tang  Teaching Museum  and  Art  Gallery  at  Skidmore  College—documents  an  exhibition presented at the Tang and at SITE Santa Fe.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eBill Arning\u003c\/b\u003e is an independent curator and gallerist based in Houston, Texas.
