A debut volume in the highly anticipated David C. Driskell Series of African American Art, Charles White sets a remarkable standard for the other volumes to follow. Filled with drawings and paintings-many of which have never been published before-scholarly text by Andrea D. Barnwell, this monograph encapsulates the spirit, vision, and extraordinary brilliance of White's powerful art. One of the greatest American artists of the twentieth century, Charles White (1918 - 1979) and his place in the annals of art history has not been adequately examined. Charles White is an important step ensuring the legacy of this seminal artist and singular man. Out of print.
