Black Art Movement

The Black Art Movement was an artistic and cultural movement primarily in the 1960s and 1970s that focused on celebrating Black identities, culture, and experiences. It aimed to challenge racial stereotypes, promote pride, and give a platform for Black artists to express their stories through various mediums like painting, sculpture, and literature. The movement also sought social and political change by highlighting issues affecting Black communities. Overall, it was both an artistic awakening and a form of activism that emphasized the importance of Black culture and perspectives in the broader art world.
