'[Casteel] captures everyday encounters with people and places in works that invite recognition of our shared humanity.' - MacArthur Foundation
The first monograph on Jordan Casteel, one of the most critically acclaimed artists working today
Jordan Casteel (b.1989 in Denver) is a New York-based artist known for her large-scale, figurative portraits and landscapes made with gestural brushwork and bold swaths of color.
From the New York City subway and the streets of Harlem to the woodlands of Upstate New York, Casteel has established a collaborative practice where individuals she has encountered over the course of her daily life are represented in their element, generating an experience that is at once intimate and collective.
Casteel's debut monograph features nearly 150 beautifully reproduced images, with sections specially conceived and designed by the artist herself.
