Description: "This volume surveys Christine Sun Kim's works across painting, sculpture, drawing, moving image, performance, large-scale murals and collaborations with other artists made between 2011 and 2024. Kim's practice considers how sound operates in society, deconstructing the politics of sound and exploring how oral languages operate as social currently. Identifying as Deaf and Korean American, Kim draws on musical notation, written language, infographics, American Sign Language (ASL) and the use of the body, strategically deploying humor to examine communication with her family and her community, and to create new channels of dialogue with wide audiences. Published alongside the traveling exhibition, All Day All Night is brimming with supplementary texts from curators, artists and scholars, including an interview between Christine Sun Kim and exhibition curators Tom Finkelpearl, Jennie Goldstein and Pavel S. Pyâs; scholarly contributions by Seth Kim-Cohen, Jeffrey Yasuo Mansfield and Park McArthur; and an intimate artist timeline compiled by Brandon Eng and Rose Pallone. A substantial plate section follows these enriching text contributions"--
Review Quotes: [Christine Sun Kim's] first major museum show at the Whitney in New York, 'All Day All Night, ' is a mixture of wry, witty, puzzling and angry works. They aren't always subtle or alluring, but they alert us to the nuances and poetry, the joy and bitterness of living in, and also outside, the hearing world.--Ariella Budick "The Financial Times"
