Título: Barbara Jones-Hogu: Resist, Relate, Unite
Autor: Julie Rodrigues Widholm, Faheem Majeed, Zoé Whitley, Rebecca Zorach
Sinopse: Review "Barbara Jones-Hogu: Resist, Relate, Unite is well organized, providing critical analysis of what it meant to be a Black visual artist during the 1960s and 1970s. Students of the Black Power or Black Arts Movements will find Jones-Hogu’s detailed descriptions of her experiences and honest reflections to be valuable. . . . It is a valuable addition to the annals of art history and can offer technical clues to printmakers, but should not be classified only as art history. Historians—in particular those who study general African American history and Black nationalism—and community archivists will appreciate the narrative." ― The Journal of African American History Product Description Chicago-based artist Barbara Jones-Hogu (1938–2017) was a central figure of the Black Arts Movement and a founding member of the African Commune of Bad Relevant Artists (AfriCOBRA).
