Innovative and lavishly illustrated, Painting the Gospel offers an
indispensable contribution to conversations about African American
art, theology, politics, and identity in Chicago. Kymberly N.
Pinder escorts readers on an eye-opening odyssey to the murals,
stained glass, and sculptures dotting the city's African American
churches and neighborhoods. Moving from Chicago's oldest black
Christ figure to contemporary religious street art, Pinder explores
ideas like blackness in public, art for black communities, and the
relationship of Afrocentric art to Black Liberation Theology. She
also focuses attention on art excluded from scholarship due to
racial or religious particularity. Throughout, she reflects on the
myriad ways private black identities assert public and political
goals through imagery. Painting the Gospel includes maps and tour
itineraries that allow readers to make conceptual, historical, and
geographical connections among the works.
