Summary

Black artists have long been major contributors to the global art scene. Yet while these artists of African and Caribbean descent have been embraced at times by the art world, they have mostly been neglected, or have not received the recognition they deserve. Taking as its starting point the Windrush-era Caribbean Artists Movement, and considering and contextualising the political, cultural, and artistic climate from which this emerged, 'A Brief History of Black British Art' brings together works by seventy Black British artists from the 1930s to the present.
