フィラデルフィア美術館のインスタグラム(philamuseum) - 11月21日 07時45分


Happy birthday to Wadsworth Jarrell, who made this technicolor print of writer and civil rights activist Angela Davis in 1972. Davis’s portrait is a kaleidoscopic assembly of letters, words, and phrases—many of them her own. Jarrell renders her face, neck, and right hand by repeating the letter B, standing for “Black” and “Beautiful,” while signal words from Black Power slogans such as “RESIST,” “REVOLUTION,” and “LOVE” radiate from Davis’s hair like sound waves. Davis’s pink jacket carries a powerful message from one of her speeches: “I have given my life to the struggle. If I have to lose my life, that is the way it will be.”
