Black Is Black And That’s A Fact -For Black History Month-Artists’ Corner-Kerry James Marshall  

If you want to see some of the most arresting (and beautiful) images of blacks in the American diaspora check out the retrospective of the very much alive artist Kerry James Marshall in March (until July ) at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. The exhibit had also at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art and the Chicago Museum of Contemporary Art in its tour around the country. If you cannot attend that forthcoming exhibit please read Darryl Pinckney’s article in the New York Review of Books, January 19, 2017, The Genius Of Blackness.
