Commemorating Bey’s return to the city that helped support his development as a master of sculptural potteryThis volume commemorates Pittsburgh-born ceramic artist, sculptor and educator Sharif Bey’s (born 1974) return to his hometown for a momentous exhibition at the Andy Warhol Museum. Bey creates complex sculptures inspired by modernism, functional pottery and Oceanic and African art. Incorporating references to childhood memories of Pittsburgh’s urban landscape, his work offers layered commentary on identity and home, probing the multiple interpretations of each concept.?In the book, reproductions of Bey’s monumental ceramics are placed in dialogue with artworks by Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat, pulled from the museum’s permanent collection. Altogether, Homecoming celebrates community arts education and highlights, through multiple texts, Pittsburgh's enduring role as a crucible for artistic development—a key factor in Bey’s emergence as a mighty voice in contemporary art.

This volume offers a compelling examination of the surprising conceptual and visual correspondences between the works of these two pivotal artists known for their innovative practices. Klein (1928-1962) was a major figure in postwar art who opened up new possibilities for material, conceptual and performative expression, often touching on the metaphysical. Hammons (born 1943) is a conceptual artist whose works in performance, installation, sculpture, printmaking and other media confront contemporary realities with an often hard-hitting wit. This publication aims not to draw out any notion of influence or direct correlation between these bodies of work, but rather to elucidate a resonance between two artists who both engage transformative processes to invest the humblest of everyday materials with deep aesthetic significance.
