• "The first comparative history of African American and Black British artists, artworks, and art movements, Stick to the Skin traces the lives and works of over fifty twentieth- and twenty-first-century painters, photographers, sculptors, mixed-media assemblage, installation, video, and performance artists. Working in the US and UK over a fifty-year period from 1965 through 2015, African diasporic artists cut to the heart of hidden histories, untold narratives, and missing memories to tell stories that 'stick to the skin' and arrive at a new 'Black lexicon of liberation'"--Provided by publisher.
