Historically patronised or promoted with such reductive terms as
"folk," "naive," and "outsider," the works of many African-American
artists born during the Jim Crow era of institutionalised racism -
most of whom are self taught-have,until recently, been relegated to
the margins of American culture. These artists are now gaining the
recognition they rightfully deserve, having addressed some of the
most profound and persistent issues in American society including
race, class, gender and spirituality. Originally created as
expressions of individual identity and communal solidarity, they
eloquent objects are also powerful testaments to the continuity and
survival of the African-American culture. Featuring more than sixty
artworks and a series of insightful essays, this volume captures
the impact of the historical legacy or the African Diaspora and the
ways it has expanded and enriched the history of American art.
