*Black Is A Color* proposes an original history of contemporary art through the practices of Black American artists from the Harlem Renaissance in the 1920s till today.

Both a historical study and a critical analysis, this book paints a picture of an America marked by its slave past, in which African American contemporary artists have been able to build a remarkable and engaged body of work to challenge the cultural and political consequences of racial discrimination.

By asserting in the White world the value of their Black visual culture, still considered as secondary alongside their musical tradition, contemporary Black artists make visible that invisibility. They accomplish it by developing an artistic identity, represented through painting, sculpture, photography, video and performance, where the place of the body, urban space and memory is analyzed.

This original reflection developed by Elvan Zabunyan in *Black Is A Color* gives a non-stereotyped view of Black culture and underlines its aesthetic and political reality in a contemporary artistic context where the radical questions on postcolonial practices and theories can be established and exist.
