Book Description
This book examines a range of visual expressions of Black Power across American art and popular culture from 1965 through 1972. It begins with case studies of artist groups, including Spiral, OBAC and AfriCOBRA, who began questioning Western aesthetic traditions and created work that honored leaders, affirmed African American culture, and embraced an African lineage. Also showcased is an Oakland Museum exhibition of 1968 called "New Perspectives in Black Art," as a way to consider if Black Panther Party activities in the neighborhood might have impacted local artists’ work. The concluding chapters concentrate on the relationship between selected Black Panther Party members and visual culture, focusing on how they were covered by the mainstream press, and how they self-represented to promote Party doctrine and agendas.

Peter and Sally Sammartino
Author: Margherita Marchione
Publisher: Associated University Presses
ISBN: 9780845348550
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
"The story of Peter and Sally can be described in three words - innovation, action, accomplishments. It took them only 25 years to make Fairleigh Dickinson University the eighth largest privately supported college in the country with an enrollment of 20,000 students! FDU stands as a monument to the memory of its founders whose enthusiasm, energy and purpose radiated everywhere and affected many lives." "This loving memorial by students and friends celebrates their untiring, selfless devotion to the academic life of our nation. Always ready to serve the cause of peace and international friendship, Peter and Sally encouraged student exchanges in Europe, Africa and Asia. With vision and genius, they were an unprecedented educational challenge to the world at large." "Peter and Sally Sammartino contributed to all aspects of education, including music, art, literature, nutrition, research. Whether publishing books to guide college presidents, or writing books on William Shakespeare or Christopher Columbus, Peter's literary style succeeds in maintaining one's interest. Not only did he start the International Association of University Presidents, but, with Sally, he was responsible for initiating the restoration of Ellis Island." "For over half a century Peter and Sally devoted their lives to giving students a dynamic cultural background with training in a career. Fannie Hurst wrote: "Aside from its functional originality, FDU represents the winged imagination of its founders who first dreamed it into reality" (May 15, 1962)."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
