    Essays and interviews explore the work of Carrie Mae Weems and its place in the history of photography, African American art, and contemporary art.

    In this October Files volume, essays and interviews explore the work of the influential American artist Carrie Mae Weems--her invention and originality, the formal dimensions of her practice, and her importance to the history of photography and contemporary art. Since the 1980s, Weems (b. 1953) has challenged the status of the Black female body within the complex social fabric of American society. Her photographic work, film, and performance investigate spaces that range from the American kitchen table to the nineteenth-century world of historically Black Hampton University to the ancient landscapes of Rome.
