Summary

"This is the first monograph on the procession and installation practice of Trinidadian-born, Japan-based artist Marlon Griffith ... Symbols of Endurance follows Griffith's artistic trajectory from his early career as a designer, or 'Masman', for Carnivals in Trinidad and London and considers these origins in relation to his later large-scale public processions created and staged in-situ across the globe for contemporary art audiences."--Back cover.
