Скачать или смотреть The Legacy of African American Textile Art

On Saturday August 15th, from 1:00 – 2:30pm, the Artists Archives hosted The Legacy of African American Textile Art with Cynthia Lockhart. Lockhart, an Ohio fiber artist and Emerita Professor at Cincinnati University describes, “Perhaps more than any other art form, textiles reflect the pulse of the African American Culture. Symbolism of the cloth has been one of our connections to our African roots." This presentation features seminal national artists such as Sam Gilliam, Romare Bearden, Faith Ringgold as well as regional fiber artists like Myrya Johnson and Lockhart’s own work.
