Synopsis
"Afro-American Artists: New York and Boston" was the largest and most concentrated exhibition of the work of contemporary Afro-American artists presented to the American public in its time. The exhibit presents a rich, high quality selection of works representing all of the directions which Afro-American artists were exploring. A great deal of the art belongs to the body of mainstream American art and therefore does not need special explanation. Its strengths are its imaginative power, its subtlety and its fine execution. Into this group fall the kinetic work of Tom Lloyd, the stripes of Daniel Johnson, the nudes of Zell Ingram, the women of Emma Amos and the excellent father-son group of John Wilson. Other works belong to the category of black art proper; for example, the political art of Dana Chandler. Still other works such as the masks of Ben Jones and the sculptures of Tonnie Jones belong to the Neo-Africanist tendency. The photos are in black and white.
