This course surveys the painting and sculpture of
black American artists. Beginning with Duncanson,
Bannister, and Tanner, the course then focuses on the art of
the Harlem Renaissance and the intellectual ideal of the
New Negro. The role of the WPA and the art of Jacob
Lawrence is followed by a section on the impact of the civil
rights movement on the visual arts and the art of Bearden.
