A Black Gaze: Artists Changing How We See

A Black Gaze: Artists Changing How We See is a groundbreaking book that challenges the dominant viewing practice by showcasing the work of contemporary Black artists who are dismantling the white gaze and demanding that we see--and see Blackness in particular--anew.

Through close engagement with the work of nine lens-based artists variously picturing Blackness, this book boldly articulates a new way of apprehending the visual order of everyday life.

With rigor and passion, Tina M.

Campt describes the creativity, ingenuity, cunning, and courage that is the modus operandi of a Black gaze.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the power of art to challenge and transform our perceptions of race, identity, and culture.
