Working in part from his late father's photographs, Ellis projected, deconstructed and reimaged his family history, creating uncanny portraits marked by voids and warps. His commitment to the self-portrait was no less inspired, particularly after his experiences of being photographed by Robert Mapplethorpe and Peter Hujar. Ellis was on the cusp of major recognition when his life was cut short by AIDS in 1992, at the age of 33.\u003cbr\u003eThis monograph provides the most comprehensive account of the artist to date, including 80 plates that chart his development from figurative painting to photographic experimentation and his later preoccupation with self-portraiture. Essays and an illustrated chronology featuring previously unseen excerpts from the artist's journals provide new insights into Ellis' life and work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darrel Ellis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1732641552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781732641556\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Visual Aids, New York\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.30h x 9.70w x 1.00d","brand":"Darrel Ellis","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44053735801087,"sku":"9781732641556","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_895c1dd0-4ede-4d60-9d7c-20e08a2d42e0.jpg?v=1685025973","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/darrel-ellis-darrel-ellis-9781732641556","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
