Black Art by Richard J Powell

Placing its emphasis on black cultural themes rather than on black racial identity, this volume explores the visual representations of black culture during the 20th century.

'A breakthrough work… imaginative… highly engaging … thoroughly grounded' - Suzanne Preston Blier, Harvard University
'Excellent artists’ profiles, lots of reproductions, and illuminating and original discussions of the social and cultural contexts and implications' - Booklist
'Significantly advances the discourse on black art and culture' - International Review of African American Art
