Requests:  0 Summary:  "A fun and fact-filled introduction to the dismissed Black art masters and models who shook up the world. Elegant. Refined. Exclusionary. Interrupted. The foundations of the fine art world are shaking. Beyoncé and Jay-Z break the internet by blending modern Black culture with fine art in their iconic music video filmed in the Louvre. Kehinde Wiley powerfully subverts European masterworks. Calls resonate for diversity in museums and the resignations of leaders of the old guard. It's clear that modern day museums can no longer exist without change--and without recognizing that Black people have been a part of the Western art world since its beginnings. Quietly held within museum and private collections around the world are hundreds of faces of Black men and women, many of their stories unknown. From paintings of majestic kings to a portrait of a young girl named Isabella in Amsterdam, these models lived diverse lives while helping shape the art world along the way. Then, after hundreds of years of Black faces cast as only the subject of the white gaze, a small group of trailblazing Black American painters and sculptors reached national and international fame, setting the stage for the flourishing of Black art in the 1920s and beyond. Captivating and informative, BLK ART is an essential work that elevates a globally dismissed legacy to its proper place in the mainstream art canon. From the hushed corridors of royal palaces to the bustling streets of 1920s Paris--this is Black history like never seen before."-- Publisher marketing.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 704.0396 Wa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 704.0396 Ware Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 704.0396 Wa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 704.0396 Wa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
