Using high - quality film stills and
boxed sections focusing on major themes and personalities, Lace takes the reader through the early blackface actors, the servant roles so prevalent in Depression - era cinema, the broadened awareness of African Americans following WWII, the blaxploitation films of the 1960s, and the impact of Spike Lee's 1989 film, Do the Right Thing.
Special
sections include «Nova» (works created within the last three years), «Positions» (
focusing on new talent), «Survey» (art historical shows; don't miss Judith Bernstein at The
Box) and more.
