About This Item
New York:: Oxford University Press,, (2018). Hardcover -. Fine in fine dust jacket.. 2nd printing. A highly praised biography of this important Black artist. Henry Louis Gates, Jr. commented "Through her long association with Romare Bearden and his work, Mary Schmidt Campbell possesses a rare understanding of his life and artistry. In this beautifully written volume, she sensitively illuminates his biography and comprehensively traces the trajectory of his career. By brilliantly interweaving the political history of African Americans throughout the 20th century with the emergence of one our foremost artists, she has written a book that speaks to anyone who is interested in American history, art, and culture. Campbell writes that Bearden's legacy is his ability to create worlds; in this biography, she re-creates Bearden's world." Illustrated with photographs in both full color and black and white. Extensive notes, bibliography, index. xv, 443 pp.
