Romare Bearden (United States, 1911-1988)Untitled (Husband and Wife), undatedWatercolor and gouache on paper, 20 1/4 x 27 1/2 in.What I’ve attempted to do is establish a world throughart in which the validity of my Negro experience couldlive and make its own logic.Black art has always existed. It just hasn’t been lookedfor in the right places.As a Negro I do not need to go looking for happenings,the absurd or the surreal, because I have seen thingsthat Dali, Beckett, Ionesco, nor any of the others couldhave thought possible.—Romare Bearden21 |
