Established by William T. Williams and including Melvin Edwards, Guy Ciarcia, and Billy Rose, Smokehouse grew to encompass a range of creative practitioners united around the revolutionary potential of public art. Though relatively unknown today, Smokehouse was ambitious in its scale, community engagement, and interaction with the built environment. Published over fifty years after the collective's founding, Smokehouse Associates offers the first critical examination of the group's work. Eric Booker provides a historical overview of the collective; Charles Davis II and James Trainor delve into contextual histories of public art, urban design, and architecture; and an artist roundtable moderated by Ashley James presents critical reflections. With previously unpublished images and ephemera and a rich chronology, Smokehouse Associates serves as a sourcebook that expands the narrative of public art and social practice in the United States to include the contributions of artists of African descent. 505 00 $t Photo index $r Ashley James -- $t Acknowledgments / $r Eric Booker -- $t Smokehouse: abstract potential / $r Eric Booker -- $t Archival reproductions -- $t The social life of abstraction / $r Charles L.
