A collection of work from contemporary Afro-Cuban American artist Harmonia Rosales.
These essays explore themes ranging from storytelling and Narrative to gender and depiction of beauty to race and diaspora..
This beautifully illustrated publication includes a catalog of works in the exhibition, a biography of the artist, and new essays by noted scholars in their fields.
Through her visual storytelling, Rosales presents the notion of human and cultural survival on her own terms--one that highlights the beauty and strength of Black people, particularly women, while touching upon grand narratives of creation, tragedy, survival, and transcendence.
Her canvases seamlessly weave the tales and characters rooted in West African Yorùbá religion, Greek mythology, and Christianity with the canonical works and artistic techniques of the European Renaissance.
Los Angeles-based artist Harmonia Rosales is known for rewriting the Master Narrative of art history, from the perspective of an Afro-Cuban American woman in the twenty-first century.
Featuring over twenty paintings and a monumental sculptural installation, Harmonia Rosales: Master Narrative is the artist\'s first major touring exhibition and first scholarly catalog of her work.
This vibrant catalog presents the work of contemporary artist Harmonia Rosales.
