Jacob Lawrence (1917 – 2000)
Harlem Rönesansı'nın kilit Afrikalı-Amerikalı sanatçısı Jacob Lawrence'ı (1917-2000) keşfedin. 'Dinamik kübizm' ve Siyah yaşamı, tarihi ile sosyal adalete dair güçlü tasvirleriyle tanınır.
American Revolutionary officer-turned-traitor Benedict Arnold used a numerical substitution system to inform the British of General George Washington’s secret plan to cross the Hudson River in 1780. Lawrence conceived of this exchange close-up as the informer whispers into the ear of his contact. Eliminating the space between the stony faces, he emphasized the dangerous nature of espionage and betrayal. The artist painted this panel one year after the collapse of Joseph McCarthy’s damaging investigations into the loyalties of progressive Americans. The subject pointedly references the widespread fear created by informers and "friendly witnesses" as well as by the FBI, which surveilled many artists, including Lawrence, for so-called "subversive" ties to left-leaning organizations.
