Description: Betye Saar: Black Doll Blues by Betye Saar, Julie Roberts, Rachel Federman, Katherine Jentleson, Maddy Inez Leeser Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description An investigation into Saars lifelong interest in Black dolls, with new watercolors, historic assemblages, sketchbooks and a selection of Black dolls from the artists collectionThis volume features new watercolor works on paper and assemblages by Betye Saar (born 1926) that incorporate the artists personal collection of Black dolls. These watercolors showcase the artists experimentation with vivid color and layered techniques, and her new interest in flat shapes. While Saar has previously used painting in her mixed-media collages, this is the first publication to focus on her watercolor works on paper."Watercolor is something that children use, so I decided, maybe Ill paint something about children, maybe Ill paint the dolls," Saar says. Referencing the underrepresented history of Black dolls through Saars artistic lens, this catalog distills several intersecting themes, imagery and objects in Saars oeuvre, highlighting her prominent usage and reinvention of Black imagery. It contains 90 color images, including early assemblage works that feature Black dolls, such as Gris-Gris Box (1972) and Mti (1973), plus early sketchbooks and a curated selection of Saars Black doll collection. It also includes original essays by Rachel Federman, Associate Curator of Modern and Contemporary Drawings at the Morgan Library & Museum, and Katherine Jentleson, Merrie and Dan Boone Curator of Folk and Self-Taught Art at the High Museum of Art, and an interview with the artist by her granddaughter, Maddy Inez Leeser.
