Lygia Clark: The I and the You and Sonia Boyce: An Awkward Relation were presented concurrently at Whitechapel Gallery in 2024, and the catalogue design reflects the dialogue between these two artists. The two exhibitions explored moments when each artist began experimenting with participatory practices, and the book’s playful form (with two covers) allows the reader to choose their own path through the material whilst also reflecting the interactive nature of the work showcased in the exhibitions.

The book features an essay by Lygia Clark scholar and curator Michael Asbury as well as a conversation between Sonia Boyce, Gilane Tawadros and Michael Asbury.

First published 2024 by Whitechapel Gallery.
