Sometimes, these artists - with backgrounds in the countries of Africa, the Caribbean and South Asia - were regarded and embraced as British pratictioners of note and merit. At other times, particularly during the 1970s and 1980s, they were not. In response, on occasion, Britain's black artists came together and made their own exhibitions or created their own gallery spaces. In this book, Eddie Chambers tells the story of Britain's black artists, from the 1950s onwards, including the contemporary art of Steve McQueen, Chris Ofili and Yinka Shonibare.--Publisher.International library of visual culture ;10.Artists, BlackGreat BritainHistory20th centuryArtists, BlackGreat BritainHistory21st centuryBlack artGreat Britain20th centuryHistoryBlack artGreat Britain21st centuryHistoryBlack people in artBritish art20th centuryHistoryBritish art21st centuryHistoryHistory of art & design styles: from c 1900 -bicsscArtists, BlackHistoryArtists, BlackHistoryBlack artHistory.Black artHistory.Black people in art.British artHistory.British artHistory.History of art & design styles: from c 1900 -704.03/96041Chambers Eddie881538EUXCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910786903503321Black Artists in British Art3693014UNINA
