Oubre, Jr. (1916-2006), was an important Black American artist and educator, who has until now received little attention from scholars and museums. He created sculptures, paintings, and prints that tested the bounds of each of these mediums. These works share a previously untold history of American modernism rooted in the South. Academically-trained, Oubre worked with an everyday material - wire coat hangers - that led some early critics to associate his sculpture with folk art, despite wire rising to prominence as a material for modernist sculptors in this period. While making his art he also trained a subsequent generation of artists through his teaching, first at Alabama State College (now Alabama State University), from 1949 to 1965, and then at Winston-Salem State University, from 1965 to 1981, both Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Within Oubre's story is a history of Alabama art shaping American art that has never been written."

Softbound. Condition: VG. Black and illus. wraps, 114 pp., profusely illustrated in bw and color. Creative Spirit: The Art of David C. Driskell, is co-curated by Dr. Adrienne L. Childs, Independent Scholar, and Dr. Julie L. McGee, Curator of African American Art, University Museums, University of Delaware, and the author of David C. Driskell: Artist and Scholar. The exhibition features 60 works, completed from the late 1950s-2010, which represent Driskell's transition through a multiplicity of media in his artwork throughout the past 60 years. Creative Spirit, reveals the totality of Driskell's artistic practice, celebrating a life lived in the service of what he often refers to as his "priestly calling." The exhibition highlights and explores seminal themes: Americana, Africana, nature, self-portrait as memoir, celestial music, and the figure. In an interview with co-curator Julie L. McGee, Driskell comments, "Color, my love of nature, and African iconography have all remained vital to my work." At times inspired by racial politics and at other times by his long held comfort in nature, all of his works display the truly creative spirit of David C. Driskell. Co-Curator Adrienne L. Childs states, "Driskell lives his life in tune with the rhythms of the natural world, which represents for him more than just a subject or a decorative motif." Driskell takes annual trips to Maine where the natural beauty of the area has inspired him time and time again.
