This book highlights these influential artists, including David C. Driskell, Sam Gilliam, Lois Mailou Jones, and Alma Thomas, in the context of what Jeffrey C. Stewart describes as the Washington Black Renaissance. Vibrant histories of key District institutions and the city's communities of educators, critics, and collectors animate a nuanced consideration of the evolution of an aesthetic dialectic from the 1920s up to the present day. The fifteen essays in the volume are grounded by voices from a live artist panel at the National Gallery of Art in 2017, which included Lilian Thomas Burwell, Floyd Coleman, David C. Driskell, Sam Gilliam, Keith Morrison, Martin Puryear, Sylvia Snowden, and Lou Stovall"--back cover. 500 $a "This volume includes proceedings of the symposium "The African American Art World in Twentieth-Century Washington, DC," organized by the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts, National Gallery of Art, and sponsored by the Wyeth Foundation for American Art and the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations.
