African American Figurines

Black Art

Black art is literally the oldest art in history. With mans origins starting on the continent of Africa and in the middle east, African hieroglyphics, sculptures, masks and scrolls have lasted down through the centuries. These art objects have made a lasting impression and their influence can be seen today throughout the world today.

Modern Black Art

Modern Black Art came into its own in the early 20th century with the art of such African American icons as Aaron Douglas, William Henry Johnson, Henry O.Tanner, Elizabeth Catlett and others. Although many African American artists moved to Europe to gain recognition for their achievements and talent, others flourished during what is today known as one of the biggest movements in art history...the Harlem Renaissance. This surgence of Black art has gone on to influence various races and nationalities of everyone from writers to singers to musicians to painters to sculpturors and more!
