Content:
This Virgil Abloh compendium, created by the designer himself, accompanies his 1980-2019 touring exhibition and offers analysis of his career and his inspirations. More than a catalog, Figures of Speech is a 500-page user's manual to Abloh's genre-bending work in art, fashion, and design. The first section features essays and an interview that examine Abloh's oeuvre through the lenses of contemporary art history, architecture, streetwear, high fashion, and race, to provide insight into a career that cuts across mediums, connecting visual artists, musicians, graphic designers, fashion designers, major brands, and architects. The book also contains an archive of images culled from Abloh's personal files on projects, revealing behind-the-scenes snapshots, prototypes, inspirations, and more accompanied by commentary from the artist. Finally, a full-color plate section offers a view of Abloh's work across disciplines
