Reviews

VanDiver proves that Lois Mailou Jones was one of the most sophisticated American modernists to look to Africa and the broader African Diaspora for artistic inspiration. The author expertly analyzes Jones's extensive body of work, making important use of interviews, Jones's papers, and archives at Howard University, and presents strong close individual readings of Jones's paintings and collages. -Phoebe Wolfskill, author of Archibald Motley, Jr. and Racial Reinvention: The Old Negro in New Negro Art
