Widely recommended. The very nature of the history of American art is greatly expanded by the recognition of the existence and importance of the works discussed and depicted here.
This volume should join the ranks of Amalia K. Amaki's A Century of African American Art, and Tradition Redefined: The Larry and Brenda Thompson Collection of African American Art. For all library collections with holdings in this area.
While other books focus more comprehensively on the traditional indigenous art of the many peoples of the region, the scope of this volume makes it invaluable to readers interested in the subject.
The detailed coverage of this topic may be overwhelming to general readers but should intrigue those interested in the contemporary art world and readers who are concerned about racial justice in U.S. society. [See "Lives, Loves, Losses: Books for Black History Month and Beyond," LJ 11/1/15.]
Of all the volumes in the series, this one has the most to offer to readers unfamiliar with the extent, diversity, and significance of the accomplishments of artists of color and deserves the highest recommendation for any library. [See "African American Lives: Books for February, Black History Month," LJ 11/1/14.]
