Abstract (English)

"This exhibition is devoted to commitment - to pictures and objects which affirm hard work, faith, patience, imagination, and aesthetic, integrity; to creation, bringing forth life or causing life to be realized anew; to human values, both intellectual and emotional. It is devoted to American artists who are Black - creative individuals, with widely, disparate intentions, ideas and goals; artists whose works are categorized as 'Black Art,' or 'Afro-American Art,' despite the fact that diversity is their universal trait." -- page 7.
