From the Najee & Seteria Dorsey Collection…
The Najee & Seteria Dorsey Collection at Black Art In America consists of over 400 works in various mediums and genres by both legacy and leading contemporary artists.
Kool Katz, doin’ their thang. Sharp as a tack. Just look at ‘em.
They doin the damn thing.
Think swag. Think young Miles in a suit, arguably the coolest cat who ever lived. Think music, that rhythmic, melodious force that unites us, brings us all together, beyond our differences, whatever they may be.
A co-founder of AFRICOBRA (African Commune of Bad Relevant Artists), painter-sculptor Wadsworth Jarrell knows both culture and cool. The Georgia born artist also knows the “cool-ade” approach, long espoused by AFRICOBRA, that boasts what the group’s cofounder Barbara Jones-Hogu once described as revolutionary ideals accompanied by “bright, vivid, singing cool-ade colors of orange, strawberry, cherry, lemon, lime and grape…”
Music… culture… jazz…
Yep, that’s pretty cool.
Browse and shop for fine art from our growing network of artists, collectors, estates, galleries — specializing in works by Black American artists with great values on premier art.
