Description

Explore the profound impact of Afrofuturism on African American art through this scholarly volume from Routledge. This book examines how images of Black women expand the discourse of representation within the visual culture of the United States. By defining a specific visual language, the text looks at how materiality, temporality, and Black liberation shape these artistic expressions. Elizabeth Hamilton provides a deep look into the visual progenitors of Afrofuturism, tracing the roots of this movement. The book analyzes the work of several significant artists, including Pierre Bennu, Sanford Biggers, Alison Saar, Mequitta Ahuja, Robert Pruitt, Renee Cox, Dawolu Jabari Anderson, Alma Thomas, and Harriet Powers. Readers will discover how these artists use fantastic narratives to redefine identity and history. This research is an essential resource for students, academics, and anyone interested in the intersection of race, art, and the future.
