Romare Bearden: Paintings and Projections
Catalog published in conjunction with an exhibition of Romare Bearden’s collages held at the Art Gallery, State University of New York at Albany, from November 25-December 22, 1968. Bearden (1911-1988) was a founding member of the art group Spiral, formed in 1963 to explore the role of African-American artists in politics and the civil rights movement, as well as in the larger art world. 8vo (9.25” x 8.25”), pictorial wrappers, 24 unnumbered pages, b/w illustrations. With an introduction by Ralph Ellison, who said of Bearden “…since he is an artist whose social consciousness is no less intense than his dedication to art, his example is of the utmost importance for all who are concerned with grasping something of the complex interrelations between race, culture, and the individual artist.” A surprisingly uncommon entry in the Bearden canon. Light bumping to extremities, with soiling and foxing to wrappers. Content clean and bright.
