| book description |

Since the mid-1970s, Ericka Beckman (b. 1951, Hampstead, NY) has forged a signature visual language in film, video, installation, and photography. Often shot against black, spatially ambiguous backdrops, her moving image works are structured according to the logic of childâ€™s play, games, folklore, or fairy tales, and populated by archetypical characters and toy-like props in bright, primary colours. Throughout her work, Beckman engages profound questions of gender, role-playing, competition, power and control. The publication will include selected works spanning thirty years of Beckmanâ€™s career, providing the first opportunity to survey her contribution to the art world. With new scholarly essays on Beckmanâ€™s work that offer an art-historical consideration of her early Super-8 Films and a critical situating of the artistâ€™s ongoing preoccupation with the structures of games, gambling, and capitalism, the exhibition catalogue contextualizes Beckmanâ€™s practice on the occasion of this major survey exhibition. More than 20 colour images in the catalogue include photo- documentation of Beckmanâ€™s works since 1983 and installation views of the MIT List Center exhibition.
