Publisher/Black Photographers Annual

Google翻訳
This book is a photo book published in the early 1970s, and the Japanese translation of the title is "Black Photo Yearbook 1973". Probably the first collection of works focusing solely on "black photographers". Speaking of the 1970s after the Black Liberation Movement and the Civil Rights Movement, it is very significant that the motifs of "blacks" and "photographers" were used in an era when discrimination against blacks still remained strong. More notably, the majority of black photographs are dominated by the so-called "Protest" theme, which is highly accused of protests and discrimination, and this is the kind of work. The works are selected with a focus on "everyday" things. A unique aesthetic eye that only humans who have been discriminated against or distinguished have. Contains a collection of works by over 40 artists, including Roy DeCarava, a pioneer of black photographers.
