Abstract

Cette recherche esthétique s'efforce de définir les paradigmes stylistiques des créations artistiques issues des diasporas africaines. Elle montre la commune sensibilité culturelle qui se dégage dans la chanson, la musique et les arts plastiques, mais aussi dans le sport et la pratique religieuse des Afro-Américains. ©Electre 2015

Abstract

Black Is A Color propose une histoire inédite de l'art contemporain à travers les pratiques des artistes noirs américains depuis la période de la Renaissance de Harlem dans les années 1920 jusqu'à aujourd'hui. À la fois étude historique et analyse critique, cet ouvrage dresse le tableau d'une Amérique marquée par son passé esclavagiste dans laquelle les artistes contemporains africain-américains ont su construire une œuvre singulière et engagée pour contester les conséquences culturelles et politiques de la discrimination raciale. En affirmant dans le monde blanc la valeur de leur culture visuelle noire encore considérée comme secondaire en regard de leur tradition musicale, les artistes noirs contemporains font accéder au visible cette invisibilité.Ils le font notamment par à la constitution d'une identité artistique qui se pense grâce à des formes de représentation (peinture, sculpture, photographie, vidéo et performance) où la place du corps, de l'espace urbain et de la mémoire est analysée. Cette réflexion originale développée par Elvan Zabunyan dans Black is a color donne une vision non stéréotypée de la culture noire et souligne sa réalité esthétique et politique dans un contexte artistique contemporain où des questions radicales propres aux pratiques et aux théories post-coloniales peuvent se poser et exister.

Abstract

"The first major catalogue of contemporary Black American collage, Multiplicity: Blackness in Contemporary American Art brings together over sixty-five works of art by fifty artists that reflect the breadth and complexity of Black identity. Rather than casting their work solely in terms of a racial discourse that often portrays African Americans as a monolith, these artists employ collage to convey the intersecting facets of their lived experiences that combine to make whole individuals. Building on a technique that has roots in European and American traditions-used by canonical figures from Picasso and Hannah Höch to Robert Rauschenberg and Romare Bearden-the artists have assembled pieces of paper, photographs, fabrics, and other often salvaged materials to create unified compositions that express the endless possibilities of Black-constructed narratives despite the fragmentation of our times. As artist Deborah Roberts asserts, "With collage, I can create a more expansive and inclusive view of the Black cultural experience." In addition to eight scholarly essays, the book features 140 color images of work by artists including McArthur Binion, Mark Bradford, Zoë Charlton, Tomashi Jackson, Arthur Jafa, Rashid Johnson, Yashua Klos, Kerry James Marshall, Wangechi Mutu, Lovie Olivia, Ebony Patterson, Howardena Pindell, Jamea Richmond-Edwards, Deborah Roberts, Tschabalala Self, Devan Shimoyama, David Shrobe, Lorna Simpson, Nyugen Smith, Paul Anthony Smith, Mickalene Thomas, Kara Walker, and others. Short biographies written by honor students at Fisk University accompany each artist's entry, concluding a comprehensive and inclusive look at collage today"--

Abstract

"Black Artists in America: From Civil Rights to the Bicentennial explores African American art during the turbulence of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. The catalogue considers the various ways in which African American artists responded to growing civil unrest, challenging the cultural, environmental, political, racial, and social issues of the era. In the 1960s, Black artists who came of age during World War II and the increasing civil rights activity of the 1950s continued to challenge inequities in the art world. They created works that celebrated their racial identity, communicated with Black audiences, and participated in the struggle for political, economic, and social equality. The establishment of artist collectives such as Spiral and museums devoted to Black art, including the Studio Museum in Harlem, alongside the emergence of art historians and critics like David Driskell and Linda Goode Bryant, marked early steps to bring Black art into broader artistic discourse. In addition to 140 full-color images of approximately seventy paintings, sculptures, and works on paper from public and private collections across the country, the catalogue features in-depth essays, including original research on artists James Porter and Merton Simpson"--
