Overlooked No More: Edmonia Lewis, Sculptor of Worldwide Acclaim
As an artist she transcended constraints, and as a woman of color, she confronted a society that wished to categorize her.
By Penelope Green/July 25, 2018
It was the middle of the 19th century, and Edmonia Lewis, part West Indian, part Chippewa, had the audacity to be an artist. It was risky enough for a free woman of color to pursue such a career, but to claim marble as her medium was to tilt at the Victorian conventions of the time, which decreed gentler aesthetic forms for the second sex, like poetry or painting.
Among the first black sculptors known to achieve widespread international fame, Lewis was raised Catholic, educated at Oberlin College in Ohio and mentored by abolitionists in Boston. She lived much of her life in Rome, sailing to Europe in 1865 and joining a community of American sculptors there who included female artists derided by the author Henry James as “a white marmorean flock.”
James singled Lewis out for special scorn. “One of the sisterhood was a Negress,” he wrote, “whose colour, picturesquely contrasting with that of her plastic material, was the pleading agent of her fame.”

We note with sorrow the passing of acclaimed African-American artist Sam Gilliam. Gilliam was a master colorist, an explorer of the possibilities of abstraction, and an artist interested in the physical nature of painting. He was perhaps best known for his “drape” paintings. The NYT describes them this way: “Suspended from ceilings, the works fell and rose in great curving and swaths, guided in part by gravity. They were at once aggressive and seductive…”. We will show work by Gilliam at the upcoming Hamptons Fine Art Fair, July 14-17.” #samgilliam #artadvisory #blackartist #blackachievement #paintingoftheday #abstractexpressionism #abstractart #interiordesign #blackartists @hamptonsfineartfair #thehamptons #southampton https://www.instagram.com/p/CfVDSgiLRHf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
