About African Modernism in America
African Modernism in America features more than 60 dynamic and vivid works of art created in Africa during the 1950s and ’60s. The exhibition explores the relationships between African artists and American patrons, artists, and cultural organizations amid the interlocking histories of civil rights, decolonization, and the Cold War.
The inventive nature of the works in the exhibition challenges the assumptions of the time about African art being isolated to a “primitive past.” Some pieces took inspiration from early Christian art, West African sculpture, and Nigerian literature, while others reflected the influences of American jazz and modern European art.
