Books by University College London) Bindman

This catalogue documents the exhibition Art of Jazz, a collaborative installation at the Ethelbert Cooper Gallery of African & African American Art and Harvard Art Museums. The book explores the intersection of the visual arts and jazz music, and presents a visual feast of full color plates of artworks, preceded by a series of essays.

The Image of the Black in African and Asian Art asks how the black figure was depicted by artists from the non-Western world-Africa, East Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. The aesthetic traditions represented are as diverse as the political and social histories of these regions.
