{"product_id":"the-image-of-the-black-david-bindman-9780674052697","title":"The Image of the Black in Western Art: Volume V","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn the 1960s, art patrons Dominique and Jean de Menil founded an image archive showing the ways that people of African descent have been represented in Western art from the ancient world to modern times. Highlights from the image archive, accompanied by essays written by major scholars, appeared in three large‐format volumes, consisting of one or more books, that quickly became collector's items. A half‐century later, Harvard University Press and the Du Bois Institute are proud to have republished five of the original books and five completely new ones, extending the series into the twentieth century. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Rise of Black Artists\u003c\/i\u003e, the second of two books on the twentieth century and the final volume in\u003ci\u003e The Image of the Black in Western Art\u003c\/i\u003e, marks an essential shift in the series and focuses on representation of blacks by black artists in the West. This volume takes on important topics ranging from urban migration within the United States to globalization, to N馮ritude and cultural hybridity, to the modern black artist's relationship with European aesthetic traditions and experimentation with new technologies and media. Concentrating on the United States, Europe, and the Caribbean, essays in this volume shed light on topics such as photography, jazz, the importance of political activism to the shaping of black identities, as well as the post-black art world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Bindman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0674052692\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780674052697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Belknap Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.04lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.41h x 9.96w x 1.26d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2014 pg. 101\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/07\/2014 pg. 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2015 pg. 79","brand":"David Bindman","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44567297982719,"sku":"9780674052697","price":106.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f2065c60-8cd7-4299-b426-1c79fc84d456.jpg?v=1701377011","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-image-of-the-black-david-bindman-9780674052697","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
