Important Works of Art by African American Artists
This collection includes paintings, drawings and collages by some of the most renowned Black artists of all time, such as
Jean-Michel Basquiat and
Jacob Lawrence. It also includes works by up-and-coming Black painters like
Colin Bootman. Each of these artists – and the many others featured here – has their own unique style and point of view. For example, Basquiat combined neo-expressionism with elements of
graffiti art and street culture, while Bootman’s realistic paintings capture what he describes as “everyday people within their natural environments.” Their art styles and subjects may be different, but both use their art to explore and celebrate African American culture.
Photographs Transformed into Black Wall Art
Our collection also includes photography prints and posters featuring famous faces like
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Angela Davis and
Josephine Baker. In addition, you’ll find photos of everyday Black Americans taking part in historically significant events, or simply going about their lives. The photos you select will be printed using superior-quality ink and paper, and some can be printed on stretched canvas, creating beautiful Black canvas art. Let our team at Art.com create a custom piece of African American art for you.
