" Moving Stones reimagines the life and legacy of Edmonia Lewis, the first internationally recognized woman sculptor of African and Native descent. Centering the varied notions of 'about'--movement, distance, desire--the book animates Lewis's sculptures, archives, and ephemera, while placing her legacy in context with artists such as Faith Ringgold, Mickalene Thomas, Simone Leigh, and zanele muholi. Brody reveals Lewis as an artist always in motion, whose resonance endures today."-- Deborah Willis, University Professor and Chair of the Department of Photography & Imaging, New York University "Bold, lyrical, challenging, and clarifying, Moving Stones dares to experiment with form, language, and representation in ways that Edmonia Lewis herself surely would have admired. A uniquely luminous treatment of a famous, yet elusive, Black-Indigenous sculptor whose style has marked contemporary art and Black women's cultural expression."-- Tiya Miles, author of , Night Flyer: Harriet Tubman and the Faith Dreams of a Free People.
