An arresting and visually rich monograph of the work of contemporary artist Sanya Kantarovsky.

Forlorn and spiritually bankrupt, tender or abject—the subjects in the figurative paintings of Sanya Kantarovsky (b. 1982) convey an uneasy, dark humor. They seem trapped in a precarious inner monologue, or under the spell of mundane lived experience. Sanya Kantarovsky: Selected Works 2010-2024 is published with the support of Aspen Art Museum, following Kantarovsky's exhibition A Solid House (2022). It includes more than 140 full-color image plates and spans the artist's oeuvre, focusing on his most recent output since his previous monograph No Joke (2014).

The publication also includes a conversation between Kantarovsky and art historian Isabelle Graw, as well as essays by the psychoanalyst and writer Jamieson Webster and art historian George Baker.
Sanya Kantarovsky is an artist based in New York City. His works are held in collections including the Buffalo AKG Art Museum; the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; the Hirshhorn Museum, Washington, D.C.; LACMA, Los Angeles; Tate Modern, London; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.
