"Most self-taught artists can be perceived as performance artists. Their work is infused with daily rituals, public actions, gestures, and enactments, defining a lifelong artistic practice for which the curtain never comes down."

Miami Art Fair, Moore Building
In an unprecedented moment, Joe's latest painting will be unveiled in an exhibition curated by Jeffrey Deitch called "Unrealism" in Miami. The life-size painting of Coleman's wife Whitney Ward took four years to complete and has never before been shown. It will be displayed alongside Coleman's own life-size self-portrait, which was completed in 2010. The "Unrealism" show is a joint project of Deitch and gallerist Larry Gagosian. In addition to Coleman, the show will include works by David Salle and John Currin, among others.

KW Institute, Berlin Germany
“Alone in the space with the art, one-on-one with a work that was made for the single individual, in a direct and inescapable interaction — intimate and confrontational.”
Visitors entered a room in total darkness. A bright light shines on a man sitting at a table and painting toy soldiers. The table is covered with a brutal battle scene.
Joe is portrayed by several actors of different genders and ethnicities.
