520    "This is a revelatory reassessment of one of the most 
       influential American artists of the 20th century: Charles 
       White (1918-1979) is best known for bold, large-scale 
       paintings and drawings of African Americans, meticulously 
       executed works that depict human relationships and 
       socioeconomic struggles with a remarkable sensitivity. 
       This comprehensive study offers a much-needed 
       reexamination of the artist's career and legacy. With 
       handsome reproductions of White's finest paintings, 
       drawings, and prints, the volume introduces his work to 
       contemporary audiences, reclaims his place in the art-
       historical narrative, and stresses the continuing 
       relevance of his insistent dedication to producing 
       positive social change through art. Tracing White's career
       from his emergence in Chicago to his mature practice as an
       artist, activist, and educator in New York and Los Angeles,
       leading experts provide insights into White's creative 
       process, his work as a photographer, his political 
       activism and interest in history, the relationship between
       his art and his teaching, and the importance of feminism 
       in his work. A preface by Kerry James Marshall addresses 
       White's significance as a mentor to an entire generation 
       of practitioners and underlines the importance of this 
       largely overlooked artist"--|cProvided by publisher.
