Black artists have been making major contributions to the British
art scene for decades, since at least the mid-twentieth century.
Sometimes these artists were regarded and embraced as practitioners
of note. At other times they faced challenges of visibility - and
in response they collaborated and made their own exhibitions and
gallery spaces. In this book, Eddie Chambers tells the story of
these artists from the 1950s onwards, including recent developments
and successes. Black Artists in British Art makes a major
contribution to British art history. Beginning with discussions of
the pioneering generation of artists such as Ronald Moody, Aubrey
Williams and Frank Bowling, Chambers candidly discusses the
problems and progression of several generations, including
contemporary artists such as Steve McQueen, Chris Ofili and Yinka
Shonibare. Meticulously researched, this important book tells the
fascinating story of practitioners who have frequently been
overlooked in the dominant history of twentieth-century British
art.
