- Summary note
- Collected in this book are 24 color reproductions of the art of seven African artists, and seven African American artists. Paintings, mixed media, sculptures, and ceramics reflect issues of identity while expressing beauty, pulsating rhythms, and a sense of improvisation among bursts of color and quieter, more contemplative moments.
