Tyler Mitchell – I Can Make You Feel Good
I Can Make You Feel Good is a 206-page celebration of photographer and filmmaker Tyler Mitchell's distinctive vision of a Black utopia.
In his debut monograph Mitchell unifies his body of photography and film from his first US solo exhibition at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. Each page of I Can Make You Feel Good is full bleed and bathed in Mitchell's signature candy-coloured palette. With no white space visible, the book's design mirrors the photographer's all-encompassing vision, which is characterised by a use of glowing natural light and rich colour to portray the young Black men and women he photographs with intimacy and optimism.
The monograph features written contributions from Hans Ulrich Obrist (Artistic Director, Serpentine Galleries), Deborah Willis (Chair of the Department of Photography & Imaging at the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University), Mirjam Kooiman (Curator, Foam), and Isolde Brielmaier (Curator-at-Large, ICP), whose critical voices examine the cultural prevalence of Mitchell's reimagining of the Black experience.
206 pages, 24.1 x 31.8 cm, linen hardcover, Prestel Publishing (Munich).
