520    "This publication sets the precedent for the next 
       generation of Lawrence scholars and studies in modern and 
       contemporary discourse. The American Struggle explores 
       Jacob Lawrence's radical way of transforming history into 
       art by looking at his thirty panel series of paintings, 
       Struggle . . . from the History of the American People 
       (1954-56). Essays by Steven Locke, Elizabeth Hutton Turner,
       Austen Barron Bailly, and Lydia Gordon mark the historic 
       reunion of this series--seen together in this exhibition 
       for the first time since 1958. In entries on the panels, a
       multitude of voices responds to the episodes representing 
       struggle from American history that Lawrence chose to 
       activate in his series. The American Struggle reexamines 
       Lawrence's lost narrative and its power for twenty-first 
       century audiences by including contemporary art and 
       artists. Derrick Adams, Bethany Collins, and Hank Willis 
       Thomas invite us to reconsider history through themes of 
       struggle in ways that resonate with Lawrence's artistic 
       invention. Statements by these artists amplify how they 
       and Lawrence view history not as distant period of the 
       past but as an active imaginative space that is 
       continuously questioned in the present tense and for 
       future audiences."--|cProvided by publisher.
