COLORED FRAMES: A Black Visual Art Retrospective
Added: (Tue Jan 10 2006)
A look back at the last fifty years in African American art, Colored Frames is an unflinching exploration of influences, inspirations and experiences of black artists. Beginning at the height of the Civil Rights Era and leading up to the present, It is a naked and truthful look at often ignored artists and their progenies.
By sorting through these various strands of African American art inspiration, this film puts forth a complex and therefore interesting view of “black art”, moving past generic afro-centric images to more detailed schools of work in the genres of illustration, abstraction, surrealism, and photography among others.
Colored Frames is an open and honest discussion of where African-American art has been, where it fits in the larger current landscape, and a look into its future.
