"A bold, brilliant artist, Romare Bearden created collages and paintings of stunning humanity in which he aimed to do nothing less than "redefine the image of man" in terms of the African-American experience.The video is narrated by Wynton Marsalis who masterfully draws parallels between jazz and the art of Romare Bearden. The video also treats viewers to rare footage of Bearden at work in his studio while he explains, in his own words, what he doing as he creates."--Publisher's website. |

Every obstacle she faced reinforced her determination to reach her goal. A painter by profession, she has moved away from traditional framed canvases to "tankas", paintings on quilted canvas with frames of quilted fabric"--Publisher's website. |
