Editor's Note:
Iconoclast and artist Pope.L uses the body, sex and race as his materials the way other artists might use paint, clay or bronze.  His work problematizes social categories by exploring how difference is marked economically, socially, and politically. Working in a range of media from ketchup to baloney to correction fluid, with a special emphasis on performativity and writing, Pope.L pokes fun at and interrogates American society’s pretenses, the bankruptcy of contemporary mores and the resulting repercussions for a civil society.  Other favorite Pope.L targets are contemporary squeamishness about the human body and questioning the very possibility of making meaning through art and its display. Published to accompany his wonderfully inscrutable exhibition Forlesen at the celebrated Renaissance Society at the University of Chicago, William Pope.L: Showing Up To Withhold is simultaneously an artist’s book and monograph. In addition to reproductions of a number of his most recent artworks, it includes images of significant works from the past decade, and presents a forum for reflection and analysis on art making today renowned critics and scholars, including Lawrie Balfour, Nick Bastis, Lauren Berlant, and K. Silem Mohammad.
