520 "Three essays in this companion volume to a traveling
exhibition trace the artistic and political forces shaping
African-American art of the last century. McElroy, guest
curator at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C.,
explores the years 1880-1920; however, his dry,
formalistic analyses of various works do not address what
their makers might have had in common aside from race.
Fortunately, Powell, program director for the Washington
D.C. Project for the Arts, and Patton, chief curator of
Harlem's Studio Museum, who respectively cover the periods
1920-1950 and 1950-1987, relate the pieces in the
collection to one another, placing them in a socio-
historical context. Color reproductions of 75 works are
well integrated and commendably diverse, and include art
by Elizabeth Catlett, whose subjects address societal
inequities, and by Charles Alston, who in the 1930s led
the influential Harlem Art Workshop and who was equally
adept at figurative and abstract representation. Prints,
etchings such as those of Henry O. Tanner, whose works are
marked by religious themes, and the folk art of Bill
Traylor, who at 85 began to draw on cardboard scraps,
complement the oil paintings depicted here." -- Publishers
