Exhibition of work by Negro artists / presented by the Harmon Foundation in cooperation with the National Alliance of Art and Industry at the Art Center

Harmon Foundation · 1933 · New York : Harmon Foundation · 32 pictures

An exhibition catalogue published in New York in 1933 by the Harmon Foundation, which presented work by African American artists with the National Alliance of Art and Industry at the Art Center, aimed at gallery visitors and art audiences of the period. The plates reproduce portraits, a head sculpture and a genre scene in muted photographic halftone, so a designer could draw on their restrained tonal palette, close cropping of faces, and dignified, studio-style poses.
