Through large-scale abstract expanses painted on old bedding, sculptures constructed from post-consumer objects and archival film footage, McMillian evokes the land’s tillage and spoilage, histories of ownership and the charged relationship between land \u0026amp; the body. 'A Son of the Soil' presents a bevy of scholarly essays that examine McMillian’s oeuvre, focusing on the artist’s interplay between urban industrialism and domestic space, his visual culture and art historical sources and, more broadly, the relationship between a region and a nation. Through this, McMillian illuminates a history of landscape representation in the South.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN 9781646570522.
