Autor Gary Monroe
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 20 noi 2001
This text introduces a group of young black artists who painted their way out of the despair awaiting them in 1950s Florida. Emerging in the late 1950s, the Highwaymen created idyllic, quickly realized images of the Florida dream and peddled some 100,000 of them from the trunks of their cars.

Descriere

This volume introduces a group of young black artists who painted their way out of the despair of citrus grove packing houses. Their 1950s images of an idealized dreamlike Florida paradise form an astonishing body of work that they sold door-to-door and out of their car trunks. 63 illustrations.

Notă biografică

Gary Monroe, a native of Miami Beach, has photographed throughout Brazil, Israel, Cuba, India, Trinidad, Poland, and Egypt, among other international destinations. He is best known for his long-term photographic involvements with the elderly's old world culture of South Beach, Haiti during the end of the Duvalier regime and foray into democracy, and tourism as a rite of passage. He has received various honors and distinctions for his work, including two National Endowments for the Arts, four Florida Humanities Council Fellowships, a State of Florida arts fellowship, and two Fulbright Foundation fellowships. Monroe is the author of The Highwaymen: Florida's African-American Landscape Painters and three other books on Florida's Highwaymen artists. He has written nine books, most of which acknowledge unrecognized self-taught Florida artists. His most recent book, E. G. Barnhill: Florida Photographer, Adventurer, Entrepreneur, highlights the artist's hand-colored photographs.
