Howardena Pindell: Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power

Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power shines light on a broad spectrum of Black artistic practice from 1963 to 1983, one of the most politically, socially, and aesthetically revolutionary periods in American history. Black artists across the country worked in communities, in collectives, and individually to create a range of art responsive to the moment—including figurative and abstract painting, prints, and photography; assemblage and sculpture; and performance.

Howardena Pindell, an artist featured in the exhibition, discusses the turbulence of the 1960’s and the evolution of her artwork to abstraction from figuration.
