Description

Explore the connection between art patronage and racial identity in Represent: Art and Identity Among the Black Upper-Middle Class. Author Patricia A. Banks examines the New York and Atlanta art scenes to reveal how black identities are built through the support of black visual art. This work provides a deep look into how upper-middle class black families use art consumption to shape identities for themselves and their children. Based on over 100 in-depth interviews, field observations at arts events, and photographic studies of art in private homes, this book offers a unique perspective on cultural participation. Banks presents a racial identity theory of consumption that challenges existing assumptions about elite culture. It serves as a significant contribution to ongoing debates regarding race, ethnicity, and the business of art, making it an essential read for students and professionals in the arts and sociology.
