📖 The Scoop
" In 1963 Bearden helped organize Spiral, a group of African American artists seeking to find the "Black" aesthetic and their role in the Civil Rights Movement. Bearden, inspired by the social concerns of the times, gathered together materials for the Spiral group to collaborate on a mural. When the collaborative project did not materialize, Bearden created collages depicting his world -- his childhood and summers spent in the South and in Pittsburgh, Biblical themes, jazz and blues music, and Harlem. This body of works from 1964 signifies the major themes that Bearden was to explore for the remainder of his long and successful career as an artist, themes which celebrate the rich cultural contributions of African American life"--From Emerson Gallery at Hamilton College website, viewed April 12, 2024.
