Jacob Lawrence The Migration Series Negro African American Griot Fine Art Book

Description: Includes reproductions of 60 paintings from this series and provides critical essays and quotes from the artist himself.The role of community storyteller - of griot- so vital to African American life, was assumed by the American painter Jacob Lawrence in 1941, when he painted the 60-panel cycle that is the subject of this landmark book. In The Migration of the Negro Lawrence recreates in vivid images and compelling words the movement of millions of African-Americans, in the 1920s and 30s, from the rural South to the urban North. Rhythmically, powerfully, he shows us the repression and deprivation of Southern life…the magnetic pull of the North, with its promise of freedom and opportunity ... the culture shock experienced from the migrants' sudden exposure to the ways of the city ... their moving attempts to save their traditions while creating a new life for themselves.
