Join Aperture and Untitled Art for a conversation between the artist and Silas Munro, founder of Polymode, to celebrate the release of Paul Mpagi Sepuya’s latest monograph, Dark Room A–Z (Aperture, 2024). In Dark Room A–Z, Paul Mpagi Sepuya reflects on the methodologies, strategies, and points of interest behind a single, expansive body of work at a pivotal moment in his career. This volume unpacks his Dark Room series (2016–21), offering a deep dive into the thick network of references and the interconnected community of artists and subjects that Sepuya has interwoven throughout the images. Dark Room A–Z serves as an iterative return and exhaustive manual to the strategies and generative ways of working that have informed Sepuya’s image-making over the past two decades. This panel discussion was recorded at Untitled Art, Miami Beach on December 6, 2024.
