How Black painters use color to create meaning, provoke remembrance, stir emotion, and uplift the spirit.
Color does more than capture a viewer’s attention. It assaults one’s equilibrium physically and psychologically. In this stunning book, Richard Powell draws on the concept of “colorstruck,” a twentieth-century slang term describing prejudice toward people with darker skin complexions, to provide a new history of Black American art. Hardcover, 288 pages.
