Published on the occasion of the exhibition at the Irish Museum of Modern Art, Sam Gilliam: Sewing Fields focuses on a lesser-known yet crucial period in Gilliam's later career: that of his sewn and collaged works. Gathering a selection of these groundbreaking works that Gilliam completed during a residency at the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in 1993, this book includes a foreword by Annie Fletcher; introduction by Mary Cremin and Seán Kissane; text by John Beardsley; interview by Thelma Golden; and photographs by Mark Gulezian, Fredrik Nilsen, and Lee Thompson.
