When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting
Published to accompany a major exhibition at Zeitz MOCAA, CapeTown, When We See Us presents a comprehensive exploration of Black representation through portraiture and figuration, celebrating Black subjectivity and Black consciousness from Pan-African and Pan-Diasporic perspectives. In the past decade, figurative painting by Black artists has risento a new prominence in the field of contemporary art. This timely and revelatory book highlights the many ways in which artists critically engage with notions of blackness, contributing to the critical discourse on topics such as Pan-Africanism, the Civil Rights Movement, African Liberation and Independence movements, the Anti-Apartheid and Black Consciousness mobilizations, Decoloniality, and Black Lives Matter. With a primary focus on figurative painting, When We See Us explores how Black artists have imagined, positioned, memorialized, and asserted African and African diasporic experiences from the early 20th century to the present day. Featuring more than 200 works of art—and contributions from well-known writers such as Ken Bugul, Maaza Mengiste, Robin Coste Lewis, and Bill Kouelany—When We See Us is a major contribution to our understanding of Black art that will appeal to anyone interested in modern and contemporary figurative art and Black cultural history.

Création Plastique d'Haïti: Art et Culture Visuelle en colonie et postcolonie- Carlo A. Célius
This book studies the universe of Haitian plastic creation over time, since the arrival in 1492 of the first Spanish conquerors in this territory, the western third of the island, which they renamed Hispaniola. To carry out his investigation, Carlo A. Célius questions, overcomes and reverses the discourses and representations that have been made since Western Europe, which have continuously qualified and classified all non-European artistic creation using criteria specific to the field of fine arts.
