Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1st. 182 pages, illustrations (some colour); 29 cm. Published by arrangement with the Hayward Gallery and the Institute of International Visual Arts on the occasion of the exhibition "Rhapsodies in Black: Art of the Harlem Renaissance," 19 June to 17 August 1997, organized by the Hayward Gallery, London in collaboration with the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. and the Institute of International Visual Arts, London. NFirm binding, clean inside copy. Corner crease/back cover. Profusely illustrated. *** "Harlem has captivated the imagination of writers, artists, intellectuals, and politicians around the world since the early decades of this century. Rhapsodies in Black: Art of the Harlem Renaissance examines the cultural reawakening of Harlem in the 1920s and 1930s as a key moment in twentieth-century art history, one that transcended regional and racial boundaries. Published to coincide with the exhibition that opens in England and travels to the United States, this catalog reflects the Harlem Renaissance's impressive range of art forms--literature, music, dance, theater, painting, sculpture, photography, film, and graphic design. The participants included not only artists based in New York, but also those from other parts of the United States, the Caribbean, and Europe. Richard J. Powell and David A. Bailey present selected works that focus on six themes: Representing 'The New Negro;' Another Modernism Blues, Jazz, and the Performative Paradigm The Cult of the Primitive Africa: Inheritance and Seizure and Jacob Lawrence's Toussaint L'Ouverture series. The visual arts from 1919 to 1938 included in the book suggest the extraordinary vibrancy of the time when Harlem was a metaphor for modernity. In spite of the importance of the Harlem Renaissance to early twentieth-century American culture and to the artistic climate of 'Jazz Age' Paris and Weimar Berlin, few art exhibitions have been devoted exclusively to the subject. Rhapsodies in Black will be welcomed for its unique presentation of this creative time. / Richard J. Powell is Professor and Chair of Art History at Duke University. David A. Bailey is Director of the African and Asian Artists' Archive, University of East London." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Re/birth of a nation, by Richard J.
