A landmark anthology on British art history, bringing together overlooked and marginalized perspectives from 'the critical decade'

What is Black art? This vital anthology gives voice to a generation of artists of African, Asian and Caribbean heritage who worked within and against British art institutions in the 1980s, including Sonia Boyce, Lubaina Himid, Eddie Chambers and Rasheed Araeen. It brings together artists' statements, interviews, exhibition catalogue essays and reviews, most of which have been unavailable for many years and resonate profoundly today. Together they interrogate the term 'Black art' itself, and revive a forgotten dialogue from a time when men and women who had been marginalized made themselves heard within the art world and beyond.

Dr Alice Correia is an independent art historian. She is a specialist in late twentieth-century British art, with a focus on Black and South Asian diaspora artists. She curated the exhibition Being British, at the Stephen Lawrence Gallery, University of Greenwich, in 2009 and has worked as a Research Fellow at Tate Research, undertaking a major project on Henry Moore. She is a trustee of Third Text.
