Cindy Sherman Retrospective MOCA Art Book 1997

Step into the transformative world of Cindy Sherman with this 1997 first edition exhibition catalog from the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Los Angeles. This is the original softcover edition published exclusively for Sherman’s landmark Retrospective exhibition, which toured internationally between 1997–1998. It features a striking orange gatefold front cover and purple back, showcasing Sherman’s iconic photography through essays and full-color plates that explore identity, gender, and the gaze — core to the postmodern movement. 📖 Details: * Title: Cindy Sherman: Retrospective * Publisher: Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles * Year: 1997 * Format: Softcover, Exhibition Catalog * Edition: First Edition (Museum Exclusive) * Country of Manufacture: United States * Literary Movement: Postmodernism * Pages: Approx. 180 * Language: English 📌 Condition: Good pre-owned vintage condition. Light surface scratches on the back cover (shown in photos). Interior pages are clean and fully intact.
