A Very Good Minus copy in a Very Good DJ. 7 lbs. 1 oz. Romare Bearden [1911-1988] was an American artist, author, and songwriter of extraordinary accomplishment. He worked with many types of media including cartoons, oils, and collages. Bearden's early work focused on unity and cooperation within the African-American community. After a period during the 1950s when he painted more abstractly, the theme reemerged in his collage works of the 1960s. The New York Times described Bearden as "the nation's foremost collagist" in his obituary. Bearden became a founding member of the Harlem-based art group known as Spiral, formed to discuss the responsibility of the African-American artist in the civil rights movement. Bearden was the author or coauthor of several books. He also was a songwriter, known as co-writer of the jazz classic "Sea Breeze", which was recorded by Billy Eckstine, a former high school classmate at Peabody High School, and Dizzy Gillespie. He had long supported young, emerging artists and he and his wife established the Bearden Foundation to continue this work, as well as to support young scholars. In 1987, Bearden was awarded the National Medal of Arts. Bearden, Romare (illustrator).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Folio in white color-illus jacket and handsome dark blue brushed cloth; 230 pages: illustrations (some color); 35 cm. Includes bibliographical references (pages 227-230). Inscribed and dated 1980 by Bearden on half title. Bearden is internationally recognized as the dean of Black American artists…. But his art reaches out far beyond the confines of its basic sources in the so-called Black experience, beyond the sociological implications that lie within his imagery. His visual idiom involves montage and collage elements in combination with forms and styles that echo those of African sculpture, and is orchestrated by a deft manipulation of mass and volume. Haunting, lovely, sometimes disturbing but always profoundly felt, his images communicate their power directly to the viewer. Their message is all the more immediate because of the artists great skill in fusing emotive imagery with unerring sophistication of technique. Beardens almost primitive paintings of the 1940s are stylized statements about Negro life, employing a simplicity of form and color that enhances their expressive power. This emotional force persists in his abstract works of the 1950s, reaching a peak in the highly charged, complex collages of the 1960s-compelling, immediate celebrations not only of Black anguish and survival but of the indomitable human spirit." --Publisher.

Very good copy with faint foxing to prelims, fore-edges and a few margins; upper board edges faintly sunned; front board paste-down slightly loosed at gutter now neatly re-glued with archival glue.
