Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... and the color black is one of the most beautiful colors. Art historian, art collector, curator, and writer Charles Moore takes you on an exquisite journey through the world of the Black artists who revolutionized contemporary art and the patrons who dedicated their lives to collecting their works. Through interviews and dialogues, Moore captures the essence of exceptional Black artists, exploring their quests for recognition of their brilliance. Moore touches on the powerful relationships between collectors and artists, as well as on the intricate and fascinating business of art ownership, from managing your assets to supporting the growth of Black art through sponsorship and involvement. The color black evokes a myriad of emotions, and that's what makes it one of the most impactful shades on the palette wheel."--Dust cover.
