Description

Reading African art’s impact on modernism as an international phenomenon, The “Black Art” Renaissance tracks a series of twentieth-century engagements with canonical African sculpture by European, African American, and sub-Saharan African artists and theorists. Notwithstanding its occurrence during the benighted colonial period, the Paris avant-garde “discovery” of African sculpture—known then as art nègre, or “black art”—eventually came to affect nascent Afro-modernisms, whose artists and critics commandeered visual and rhetorical uses of the same sculptural canon and the same term.

A new, expansive study on Futurism which explores for the first time its relationships with other European avant-gardes during 1912 to 1939 Futurism was originally an Italian movement established in 1909 that strived for a radical rejuvenation of culture, not just in art but in all aspects of life. The concept of a new, all-encompassing aesthetic found its way to large parts of Europe and had a great influence on other avant-garde movements, something which has never before been fully explored.
