'Soul of a Nation' as seismic detector, political persuader and defensive weapon

Emma Amos’s “Eva the Babysitter” (1973) is reproduced from Soul of a Nation, the catalog to the blockbuster survey currently on view at the Brooklyn Museum. Amos was the only female member of the New York City-based Spiral Group, which included Charles Alston, Romare Bearden and Norman Lewis, also in the show. Called "radiant and radical" by Holland Cotter in the New York Times, this landmark exhibition collects twenty years worth of "work that functioned, in its time, as seismic detector, political persuader and defensive weapon." We couldn't be prouder to have co-published the exhibition catalog. Other artists include Sam Gilliam, Jack Whitten, Howardena Pindell, David Hammons, Barkley L. Hendricks and Betye Saar, to name just a few.
