Jeff Wall, born in Vancouver in 1946, is widely regarded as one of the most inventive artists of his generation. His carefully staged and composed images, often digitally altered and displayed in backlit boxes, have revolutionized photography's role in contemporary art. For over 20 years, Wall has explored themes such as urban violence, racism, poverty, gender, class, history, and memory. His works, in both color and black-and-white, engage in dialogue with nineteenth-century genre painting, embodying Charles Baudelaire’s concept of "a painter of modern life." This 300-page monograph features nearly 150 illustrations and includes Wall’s influential writings.
