Softcover. Softcover. Quarto. Exhibition Catalogue. 67pp. Nicely illustrated with full-page color plates. Incl. biography. Exhibition list laid-in. Some silverfish damage to one corner. "Bill Traylor (ca. 1853-1949) is regarded today as one of the most important American artists of the twentieth century. A black man born into sl…avery in Alabama, he was an eyewitness to history: the Civil War, Emancipation, Reconstruction, Jim Crow segregation, the Great Migration, and the steady rise of African American urban culture in the South. Traylor would not live to see the civil rights movement, but he was among those who laid its foundation. Starting around 1939-by then in his late eighties and living on the streets of Montgomery-Traylor made the radical steps of taking up pencil and paintbrush and attesting to his existence and point of view. The paintings and drawings he made are visually striking and politically assertive; they include simple yet powerful distillations of tales and memories as well as spare, vibrantly colored abstractions. When Traylor died in 1949, he left behind more than one thousand works of art."-smithsonian.

paperback. Condition: Very Good. 1993 Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts (Montgomery, Alabama), 8 1/4 x 8 inches tall paperbound, copiously illustrated with black-and-white and color reproductions of artwork, [40] pp. A near fine copy - clean, bright and unmarked. ~TT~ [1.0P] An exhibition catalog, with essays by Andrea Potochick an…d Eileen Knott. William Traylor (c.?1853-1949) was an African-American self-taught artist from Lowndes County, Alabama. Born into slavery, Traylor spent the majority of his life after emancipation as a sharecropper. It was only after 1939, following his move to Montgomery, Alabama, that Traylor began to draw. At the age of 85, he took up a pencil and a scrap of cardboard to document his recollections and observations. From 1939 to 1942, while working on the sidewalks of Montgomery, he produced nearly 1,500 pieces of art. While Traylor received his first public exhibition in 1940, it was not until 30 years after his death that his work finally began to receive broader attention, in the late 1970s. Recent acceptance of Traylor as a significant figure of American folk and modern art has been founded on the efforts of Charles Shannon, as well as the evolving tastes of the art world. Shannon, who first encountered Traylor's work in 1940, brought Traylor to the attention of the larger art world. Traylor now holds a central position in the fields of 'self-taught' and modern art.
