SIGNED Avant Arte, 2025. 13.78 x 13.78 inch archival pigment print with matte varnish seal on 410gsm Somerset Tub Sized Radiant White paper. Limited Edition of only 423 individually SIGNED and numbered photographs (hand signed by Weems on an adhesive to print verso); also includes a separate signed Certificate of Authenticity. Carrie Mae Weems opens her historic Kitchen Table Series with a staged photograph of love and desire. In 1990, Carrie Mae Weems took 20 black-and-white images at her kitchen table, a traditionally female space that has not been celebrated enough in art. The overhead bulb sets the stage in each photograph, where a host of intimate domestic scenes and social dynamics unfold. In Untitled (Man & Mirror), Carrie looks directly into the lens as her lover’s body embraces her from above. In an accompanying text from the original installation, the artist writes: "A thin line of difference was beginning to show itself, but they didn't want to lose this dream, so kept at it. Plus the loving was worth it." Seamlessly threading together the personal and political, this limited edition print is a testament to the artist's monumental legacy. CONDITION: New. SIGNED
