| Publisher Description: Two plays from a wholly original artist that reach beyond the traditional boundaries of theater to engage in the tangible artistic landscapes of their invented subjects. In Master, Hancock creates the character of a 20th century African-American artist called "Uncle Jimmy" Clemens, who left behind an enormous body of work for which he was never recognized, now on display in an art installation. The Convention of Cartography is a traveling art exhibit featuring the collected works of a nomadic artist named Mike whose work has posthumously been collected and installed in a pop-up museum. In these two works, Hancock explores the liminal spaces between language and silence, fiction and truth, and the known and the unknown. |
