5.0 Flash of the Spirit: African and Afro-American Art and Philosophy
text Flash of the Spirit: African and Afro-American Art and Philosophy
I just watched the documentary "Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child" and he mentions this book as being one of the best books he's ever read. This is a really stellar book and I have yet to see anyone approach the topic of African/Afro-American Art in the same way since.
