African American and American Indian artist Richard Mayhew was a pivotal member of the movement, headed by Romare Bearden, of the most important black artists of the Abstract Expressionist era. Bearden's group, Spiral, was formed as a visual response to the March on Washington. Mayhew associated with Jackson Pollock, Robert Motherwell, and Bearden, and formed alliances with such African American artists as Faith Ringgold, Norman Lewis, Ed Clark, and Emma Amos; his work is exhibited in major collections and museums throughout the world. This book explores his art and discusses the critical exclusion from the history of art of Native Americans and African Americans who are not figurative or "narrative" and creates a framework for reconsideration of such art.

James Havard is a contemporary artist who is considered a pioneer of the 'abstract illusionist' school, whose varied techniques include collage, squeezing paint directly from the tube, and especially the use of prehistoric Native American culture and art. Havard himself is often influenced by American Indian and African tribal cultures and cave paintings, which have imbued his work with sensitivity and passion. "James Havard" is the first extensive monograph of the works of this influential artist. It includes an in-depth examination of his artistic processes and development, an illustrated chronology and complete documentation of his career. 114 colour plates

Baby-boom Daydreams

  • Categories: Art

This monograph features the work of Douglas Bourgeois, a figurative artist whose meticulously detailed paintings and sculptural assemblages present icons of popular culture as well as ordinary people from Louisiana's diverse populations. Bourgeois' work often portrays religious imagery and environmental concerns and the political issues expressed in the rock and roll and movies he loves. He fuses private fantasy with a kind a social document, exploring everything from racial tensions to violence, both domestic and public. The artist, like the figures he depicts, searches for magic or spiritual qualities in everyday life. Ultimately, he and his art seek redemption. 65 colour & 21 b/w illustrations
