African American Art and Artists

Book by Samella Lewis. University of California Press 359 pages Paperback Published 2003-03-18. Description: Samella Lewis has brought African American Art and Artists fully up to date in this revised and expanded edition. The book now looks at the works and lives of artists from the eighteenth century to the present, including new work in traditional media as well as in installation art, mixed media, and digital/computer art. Mary Jane Hewitt, an author, curator, and longtime friend of Samella Lewis's, has written an introduction to the new edition. Generously and handsomely illustrated, the book continues to reveal the rich legacy of work by African American artists, whose art is now included in the permanent collections of national and international museums as well as in major private collections.
      • Review:: 'African American Art and Artists, Revised and Expanded Edition Excellent book! It has pictures and a bio on todays black artists. My favorite would have to be Ben Jones, my old college professor! lol www.Gallery07002.com
      • Review:: 'A Commendable Documentation of African-American Art Samella Lewis has updated and further developed her definitive guide on African-American Art. As a former student instructed on the subject with her first edition of this book as our class text, I can definitively say that this book provides a solid understanding of the different art movements and a variety of examples of the works. Also from the perspective of a young museum professional who has worked with African-American art collections, I highly recommend this volume as a foundation of basic knowledge on the subject.

The Other Side of Color- African American Art in the Collection of Camille O. and William H. Cosby, Jr.

Cover of ISBN 0764914553The Other Side of Color
African American Art in the Collection of Camille O. and William H. Cosby, Jr.:
Book by David C. Driskell. Pomegranate 240 pages Hardcover Published 2001-03. Description: David C. Driskell's easy-to-read and thorough critique of the African American art experience—the other side of color—breaks new ground in presenting almost one hundred selections from a unique art collection that provides the context for this book.

First is an overview of the history of African American art--which in this country predates the Civil War--and a detailed explanation of the raison d'etre behind the Cosby collection. Part 2 discusses five prominent postcolonial African American artists who lead the way for future black artists and the struggles they overcame to promote cultural emancipation and acceptance in the American mainstream.

Subsequent parts reveal how African American artists continued the quest for recognition, culminating in the turning point of black culture in the twentieth century in the United States: The Harlem Renaissance. Throughout the discussions within each of the book's six parts, beautiful full-color artworks from the Cosby collection highlight and validate Driskell's writing. Rene Hanks's biographies add even more information about the featured artists as well as indicate the locations of the major collections of their works.

      • Review:: 'About the Author "David C. Driskell is considered one of the world's leading authorities on the subject of African American art. He has taught at Talladega College, Howard and Fisk Universities, and is a visiting professor at the University of Michigan, Queens College, and Obadefemi Awolowo University (the former University of Ife) in Nigeria. He retired as Distinguished University Professor of Art Emeritus from the University of Maryland. In the United States, Driskell has appeared on The Today Show, In the News, and PBS; he has also appeared on television in ten foreign countries. In addition, he is a renowned curator, lecturer, and author. More by David Driskell: Narratives of African American Art and Identity "240 pages with approximately 100 full-color artworks by 47 African American artists. Casebound, with dust jacket. Size: 10 x 13". Introductions by Camille and Bill Cosby. ISBN 0-7649-455-3."--ý Pomegranate
      • Review:: 'Good book for collectors of All types of Art!! Great book. Very useful for new collectors.
      • Review:: 'Make it Right! I enjoyed the book; it was entertaining, insightful, scholarly, and included a few insightful surprises! However, I was most disappointed to note the biographical omission of Mr. Simmie Knox; he is too talented and humble a person to be overlooked in such a fashion. So, for the sake of posterity, the book should be recalled and corrected as soon as possible. Surely, we wouldn't want it said this is the way we regard an African American Presidential Artist! Correction please.
      • Review:: 'The Other Side Of Color What a beautiful explanation of art that has been ignored for so many years. Not only is the book well illustrated, it is informative. Not having much understanding of art at all, I have now begun to understand the artist, the art and the expression of information that is creative and informative of people and events. This is a book not only for the scholar and informed art collector but for those of us who enjoy beauty. We can now understand creativity in a new way.
