The Routledge Companion to African American Art History

About this book

This Companion authoritatively points to the main areas of enquiry within the subject of African American art history.

The first section examines how African American art has been constructed over the course of a century of published scholarship. The second section studies how African American art is and has been taught and researched in academia. The third part focuses on how African American art has been reflected in art galleries and museums. The final section opens up understandings of what we mean when we speak of African American art.

This book will be of interest to graduate students, researchers, and professors and may be used in American art, African American art, visual culture, and culture classes.
