This is a catalog published in conjunction with exhibition Luhring Augustine: 25 Years.

Among the works included in 25 Years are Janine Antoni’s Lick and Lather, 1993, a series of two self-portrait busts made of chocolate and soap; Joel Sternfeld’s iconic McLean, Virginia, December, 1978, from his American Prospects series; Rachel Whiteread’s Untitled (Black Bed), 1991; Cady Noland’s Crate of Beer, 1989; Christopher Wool’s Minor Mishap II, 2001; and the cover of Larry Clark’s 1983 book Teenage Lust. Many of the works in the exhibition are emblematic of milestones in the artists’ careers. For example, a meticulously-staged large-scale photograph by Gregory Crewdson referencing the Shakespearean character Ophelia, which later became the cover of his book Twilight in 2003; Yasumasa Morimura’s Angels Descending a Staircase, 1991, which illustrates the artist’s pioneering use of photographic manipulation; and a 1992 self-portrait by Martin Kippenberger, with whom the gallery maintained a long relationship and who was featured in solo shows at Luhring Augustine in New York and Los Angeles.
