Soul Of A Nation: Art In The Age Of Black Power

In the period of radical change from 1963-83, young Black artists at the beginning of their careers in the USA confronted key questions and pressures. How could they make art that would stand as innovative, original, formally and materially complex, while also making work that reflected their concerns and experience as African Americans? This publication surveys a crucial period in American art history and shines a light on neglected Black artists including Frank Bowling, Sam Gilliam, Melvin Edwards, Bettye Saar, Jack Whitten and William T. Williams.
