256 pages. Paperback. Texts in English. There is a slight shaving of the front cover at the lower right. It is well done enough that it seemed at first to be a designed part of the cover, but I believe now that it is not. Otherwise, the binding is tight, the shelfwear minimal, the interior clean and free of markings. Bound in stiff printed paper French fold covers. A collection of thoughtful and illustrated essays on the subject.

A thought-provoking reflection on Black art within the Canadian cultural landscape.
Featuring boundary-breaking artists and scholars, Making History collects poems, artist statements, and portfolios that showcase thoughtful understandings of Black aesthetics, Black contemporary art’s institutional presence, and perspectives on modern and historical art practices throughout Canada.
Making History explores new approaches to the relationship between institutions, artists, and audiences while emphasizing collaboration, resisting exclusionary curatorial practices, and allowing multiple perspectives to bring about transformative change.
