5.0 out of 5 stars
Great resource and easy to read
Sharon Patton does a wonderful job placing African-American art and artist within the contex of the time in which it was made. She shows how people of color were part of all the art movements and what the contributions were. The reproductions are high quality and the images cover many different mediums.

Not a fan of the arts

fabulous, and I got to meet her!,
This review is from: African-American Art (Oxford History of Art) (Paperback)
This is a good introductory resource to African-American art. Patton fits a lot of history in a small book.
Generally the Oxford series are pretty fantastic to begin with, so you can't go wrong. Plus, I got to meet her. She is very nice and knowledgeable. I got a chance to hear her speak at a conference.
