AfriCOBRA 1: Ten in Search of a Nation, exhibition poster

1019
"The group of ten artists known as AfriCOBRA (African Commune Of Bad Relevant Artists) was formed in 1962, but did not mount their first formal exhibition until July 1970 at the Studio Museum in Harlem. The show then went on the road, with the first stop being the show advertised here at the Museum of the National Center of Afro-American Artists, in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston. Samples of the work are superimposed over a collage silhouette of Africa on recto, and images of the ten artists on verso, along with lists of their works. Among the artists are Barbara Jones-Hogu, Carolyn Lawrence, Nelson Stevens, Jeff Donaldson, and Wadsworth Jarrell."—https://catalogue.swanngalleries.com/Lots/auction-lot/(ART)-Africobra-1-Ten-in-Search-of-a-Nation?saleno=2534&lotNo=104&refNo=768179
