A major monograph chronicling Thomas' vibrant, rhinestone-adorned paintings

Contemporary African-American artist Mickalene Thomas has created a dramatic body of work that ranges from painting, collage and print to photography, video and immersive installations. The book -- and the exhibition at the Broad Museum on which it is based -- shares its title with the pivotal text by feminist author bell hooks, in which love is an active process rooted in healing, carving a path away from domination and towards collective liberation.
Through her probing investigations of pop culture and mass media, Thomas makes a reverberating demand for Black women to be seen and understood, and for viewers to become what hooks calls "practitioners of love."
With influences ranging from 19th-century painting to popular culture, Thomas' art articulates a complex and empowering vision of womanhood while upending traditional definitions of beauty, sexuality, celebrity and politics. This major publication further affirms Thomas' status as a key, influential figure in contemporary art. It features notable works that are arranged in thematic chapters throughout the book.
The book also features an interview with the artist by Rachel Thomas, and is followed by essays from Beverly Guy-Sheftall, Darnell L. Moore, Claudia Rankine, Ed Schad, Ren?e Mussai and Christine Y. Kim, which cover her distinct visual vocabulary, drawing on themes of intergenerational female empowerment, autobiography, memory and tenets of Black feminist theory. Together, these essays explore how Thomas subverts art history to reclaim the notions of repose, rest and leisure in works that celebrate self-expression and joy. For the artist, repose is a radical act, pointing to "what is able to happen once you have the agency."

Mickalene Thomas (born 1971) is an international, award-winning, multidisciplinary artist whose work has yielded instantly recognizable and widely celebrated aesthetic languages within contemporary visual culture. She is known for her elaborate portraits of Black women composed of rhinestones, acrylic and enamel.

Great for behind a dresser
Size: 5 FT (2 prong plug), Color: White
Works great. Plug lays flat against the wall. Doesn't charge great on USB C ports, but it'll get you by. USB charging is 2 out of 5. Quality seems 4 out of 5.

Excellent cable tray—holds everything securely and installs in minutes!
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
So glad I bought this! The Univivi cable management tray was exactly what I needed to clean up the mess under my desk without drilling or damaging the surface. The clamp-on design is sturdy and holds tight, and setup took just a couple of minutes with no tools needed beyond what’s in the box. I was pleasantly surprised that it holds a full-size power strip securely using the included straps, and there’s still plenty of room for additional cables and adapters. The tray is breathable and helps keep everything from being visible, off the floor and out of sight. If you're looking for a non-permanent solution for organizing power bricks, cords, and excess cable length, this is a great choice. Functional, neat, and hassle-free—highly recommended!

Game changer for cable management – clean setup in minutes
Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W, Color: Black, Size: 36"L x 5.5"W
This under-desk cable tray is exactly what I needed. Installation was stupid easy with the clamp mounts — no drilling, no damage to my desk, and it feels rock solid once tightened. The fabric tray holds way more than I expected (power strip + multiple cables) and keeps everything hidden instead of dangling everywhere. My setup instantly looks cleaner and more intentional. If you care about a minimal desk aesthetic, this is a no-brainer. Build quality is better than I expected for the price. The metal brackets are sturdy, the fabric is thick, and it comes with plenty of straps for organizing cables properly. If you’re tired of seeing cable spaghetti under your desk, buy this. Simple, effective, and worth every dollar. Highly recommended.
