Book Synopsis
Exploring the art and life of this important American artist whose work bridged the gaps between abstraction, feminism, and Blackness

Trade Review

“Cowan’s focus on the influence of Africa and African textiles on Howardena Pindell’s work and her convincing presentation of abstraction as politically meaningful make this book entirely unique.”—Lisa Farrington, Howard University

“Cowan creates an important and compelling analysis of the life and career of a grossly understudied American artist. This book has the potential to change the way we understand Howardena Pindell.”—Jordana Moore Saggese, University of Maryland
