Description
Before the 1960s American art institutions and museums ignored African American artists, theory, and scholarship. Black scholars were not referenced in books, papers, and presentations. But the Black Arts Movement of the 1960's insisted, and with the assistance of community support and national/international philanthropy, fragile recognition was established with limited benefits. These are some of the many stalwart "Culture Sculptors" and HBCUs that kept our "Circle of Black Aesthetics Unbroken", unapologetically: DuSable Museum Keith Morrison Howard University The Association of African American Museum Founders The National Conference of Artists Margaret Burroughs James Porter David Driskell Morgan State University Barnett Aden Gallery John Kinard Augusta Savage Fisk University Alain Locke Margaret Just Butcher Samella Lewis Hampton University Marcus Garvey This digital poster is available.
