Abstract
This exhibition was curated by Art and Art History Department Professor Eddie Chambers in Spring 2019. This collection correlates with exhibitions of the work of Charles White at both the Blanton Museum of Art and the Christian-Green Gallery. Born in Chicago in 1918, Charles White was a highly skilled and accomplished draughtsman, painter, printmaker and muralist. He dedicated his life to his art which was characterized by its commitment to depicting African Americans as dignified, resilient survivors.
