The first complete monograph and retrospective on the sixty-year career of Frank Stewart, photographer of an astonishing range of intimate and empathetic images of Black life, music, and culture.\nFrank Stewart’s Nexus presents an overview of the career of this noted photographer, who since the 1960s has captured spontaneous and sensitive portrayals of African American culture in many forms, including art, food, dance, and music—especially jazz. Best known for his work as senior photographer for Jazz at Lincoln Center, Stewart produced energetic street scenes and profound landscapes on his worldwide travels with the orchestra. The intimate and subtle relations between and among people are at the heart of Stewart’s art, whether shot at a Manhattan jazz concert, in the studio of artist Romare Bearden, or during a sacred rite in an African village. This sweeping survey of 103 images, with an artist interview and texts by multiple critical voices, illuminates the evolution of a remarkable career.\nExhibition Itinerary:\nThe Phillips Collection, Washington, D.C.: June 10–September 2, 2023\nArtis–Naples, The Baker Museum, Naples, FL: October 14, 2023–January 7, 2024\nTelfair Museums, Savannah, GA: February 9 – May 12, 2024

The definitive monograph of Sam Gilliam one of the great innovators in post-war American painting An African American artist in the nation's capital at the height of the Civil Rights movement,&nbsp;Sam Gilliam blazed a trail with his singular artistic vision. Gilliam emerged from the Washington, DC art scene in the mid 1960s with works that disrupted established artistic norms and styles.&nbsp; Relentlessly experimental and inspired by the improvisatory ethos of jazz, Gilliam's lyrical abstractions took on an increasing variety of forms, moods, and materials. This book, made in close collaboration with Gilliam's estate, is the first to comprehensively survey the breadth of his extraordinary career, and features&nbsp;never-before-seen archival materials and&nbsp;insightful newly commissioned texts that shine light on the artist, his life, and his work, together with examples of Gilliam's work spanning five decades.
