A fully illustrated exhibition catalog (122 pages) includes an extensive essay by Laura Allred Hurtado, “The Immediate Present” and pairs commissioned texts with the visual artworks. Like the artists themselves, the individuals whose words are featured in this book have distinct backgrounds—a lawyer, a doctor, a game warden, a poet, a children's book author, a composer, a musician, and a women's rights advocate—just to name a few. The twenty-three writers are: Claire Åkebrand, English Brooks, Joanna Brooks, Sam Brown, Claudia Bushman, Alex Caldiero, Tyler Chadwick, Steve Evans, Fiona Givens, James Goldberg, Ryan Habermeyer, Julie de Azevedo Hanks, Ashley Mae Hoiland, Garrick Infanger, McArthur Krishna, Igor Coelho Arantes Santana Marques, Neylan McBaine, Carol Lynn Pearson, Jennifer Reeder, Analisa Coats Sato, Rachel Hunt Steenblik, Paul Washburn, and Chrysula Winegar. The book is available on Amazon.com $24.95.
