Contact seller5-star sellerFirst Edition. [African-American Art][Harlem Renaissance] Harmon Foundation Exhibition of the Work of Negro Artists, 1931, a pivotal institutional public recognition of Black visual art during the Harlem Renaissance. Issued for the February 16-28, 1931 exhibition at the Art Center in New York, the catalog represents the final ye…ar of the Harmon Foundation's annual exhibitions, a series that materially shaped national awareness of Black artists during the interwar period. The exhibition set forth to advance the cultural legitimacy of African American artists, largely excluded from mainstream museums and academies. Harmon Foundation. Exhibition of the Work of Negro Artists. New York: Harmon Foundation at the Art Center, 1931. First edition. Staple-bound illustrated wrappers. 47 pages. The front wrapper reproduces Sargent Claude Johnson's sculpture Chester, a carved wood depiction of a contemplative Black youth, emblematic of Johnson's synthesis of African sculptural forms and American modernist aesthetics. The catalog contains essays outlining the Foundation's mission to cultivate African American artistic achievement and its partnerships with historically Black institutions. Reproductions include Laura Wheeler Waring's Mother and Daughter, presented in soft monochrome, a dignified and intimate representation of Black domestic life. The inclusion of a Kasai dance mask from the Harlem Museum of African Art contextualizes the exhibition within broader diasporic reclamation movements central to the Harlem Renaissance. A printed statement by Ernestine Rose of the 135th Street Branch of the New York Public Library underscores the importance of preserving "the artistic records of Black life," reflecting the exhibition's alignment with Black intellectual and archival advocacy. Appearing in 1931, as the Great Depression reshaped philanthropic priorities and constrained arts funding, this final annual exhibition catalog marks both culmination and transition in institutional support for African American artists. The Harmon Foundation's exhibitions created networks of patronage, publicity, and acquisition for Black artists at a time of especially stringent systemic exclusion. The catalog preserves not only individual artworks but also the infrastructure of advocacy that sustained Harlem Renaissance cultural production. Stapled binding delicate and partially separating; moderate edge wear with chips and closed tears to spine and front wrapper; creasing to front panel; faint staining to upper corner; internally clean. Good. An important document of Depression-era philanthropy and the organized promotion of African American art at a defining moment in American exhibition history.

Contact seller5-star seller[New York: Harmon Foundation, ca. 1940s]. Ten loose portraits, image size c. 10 × 8 in. on coated stock sheets 11½ × 9 in., with captioned margins, printed recto only. Light toning and faint handling; very good or better. These ten prints belong to the Harmon Foundation's celebrated "Portraits of Outstanding Americans of Negro O…rigin" project, a visual initiative begun in the early 1940s with oil portraits by Betsy Graves Reyneau and Laura Wheeler Waring. The project itself was conceived by Reyneau as a "visual education" effort. She was "shocked by the overt racism that existed in the 1930's. She decided that by using her skills as a portrait painter she could do something that would make a difference in the country's perception of African Americans. Reyneau's determination eventually resulted in a set of portraits commissioned by the Harmon Foundation." (National Archives) The Black artist Laura Wheeler Waring was commissioned to work with Reyneau. Years earlier, during visits to Europe, Waring met and befriended other artists, writers, and intellectuals of the African diaspora, such as Henry Ossawa Tanner and W. E. B. Du Bois. Some of her friends and acquaintances sat for their portraits with Waring. Her art was displayed at the Harmon Foundation exhibition of works by "Negro artists" in 1927. The Harmon Foundation commissioned the series to recognize African American achievement, beginning with 22 portraits and later expanding to 47. The paintings debuted at the Smithsonian in May 1944, and due to public demand toured nationally through museums, galleries, and civic venues for several years. Reyneau completed the majority of the works while Waring, who died in 1948, contributed several of her most accomplished likenesses, including (as seen with this set) W.E.B. Du Bois, Marian Anderson, George Washington Carver, and George Edmund Haynes. The Foundation issued the portraits in at least three formats. The present set of ten, accompanied by a portfolio envelope and broadside (both lacking here), represents the intermediate format. A smaller set of twenty-four 3 × 5 in. prints was issued in a printed envelope, while a larger series of twenty-four prints was produced in a larger format. All formats are rare. OCLC 774915628 records just one example of the ten-print set offered here. The 10 portraits are titled and captioned thus: Mary McLeod Bethune, "Founder of Bethune-Cookman College, Director, Division of Negro Affairs - National Youth Administration, President, National Council of Negro Women" (Reyneau); Jane M. Bolin, "Justice of Domestic Relations Court of the City of New York" (Reyneau); W. E. B. Du Bois, "Editor - Writer - Teacher, Interpreter of Race Relations" (Waring); George Edmund Haynes, "Secretary of Race Relations, Federal Council of Churches of Christ in America" (Waring); William Campbell, "Captain - 99th Pursuit Squadron [Tuskegee Airman]" (Reyneau); Channing H. Tobias, "Religious and Social Leader" (Reyneau); Marion Anderson, "Contralto" (Waring); George Washington Carver, "Scientist" (Reyneau); Charles Richard Drew, "Surgeon, Pioneer in Blood Plasma" (Reyneau); Asa Philip Randolph, "Labor Leader, International President Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters" (Reyneau).
