This renaissance of African-American creativity was as centered on the visual arts as it was on literature and poetry. It was also as much an artistic movement as it was a revolt against racism and a celebration of the African-American culture. Urban migration by African-Americans, combined with the emergence of radical black intellectuals, such as W.E.B Du Bois, Alain Leroy Locke and Marcus Garvey, all helped to create an environment in 1920's Harlem that nurtured the evolution and growth of the Harlem Renaissance. This period helped to create the poetry of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Houston, while also developing the talents of painters such as William H. Johnson and Jacob Lawrence.

Extractions: (WORCESTER, Mass., December 20, 2002) - From sculptures of African masks to painted scenes of everyday life, the diverse work on view in The Harlem Renaissance and Its Legacy at the Worcester Art Museum, Jan. 18-April 13, celebrates the artistic achievements of African Americans in the 20th century. In the 1920s, Harlem became a creative hub that encompassed every facet of American culture-literature, visual arts, theatre, music, and dance. The Harlem Renaissance influenced artists in cities across the United States and abroad, producing artwork that captured the triumphs and struggles of the African-American experience. While the Renaissance, fueled by the universal prosperity of the 1920s, lasted little more than a decade, its legacy can be traced through much of the 20th century. The Harlem Renaissance and Its Legacy , organized by the Worcester Art Museum, features paintings, sculptures, collages, photographs and illustrated books by prominent African-American artists from the Harlem Renaissance and the decades that followed. Works derive from the Worcester Art Museum's permanent collection, and also from private collections, rarely on public view. While there were notable African-American artists prior to the Harlem Renaissance, they found little public support. Because of the prosperity of 1920s, both middle-class African Americans and European Americans became patrons of the arts. A great migration of African Americans from the south to urban centers energized Harlem with a pervading sense of freedom and expression. The culture of the Harlem Renaissance fostered friendships and collaborations among artists of many disciplines. A wide circle of performers, poets, playwrights and painters socialized and lent support to one another. Jazz diffused popular music, and writers and poets such as Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, and James Weldon Johnson thrived.

http://www.georgetown.edu/tamlit/teaching/hathway5.html

Extractions: This is an interdisciplinary upper-division course designed to immerse students in a particularly important historical moment in African American history, the Harlem Renaissance. Depending on the abilities and backgrounds of the participants, each student will be expected to produce an in-depth research paper (15-20 pp., using both primary and secondary sources) on a particular author or issue of prominence during the Renaissance. The students will also assist in conducting class discussion during the day on which the subject of their work is being discussed. At the end of the course, in lieu of a final, students will present their work to the rest of the class DESCRIPTION: This is an interdisciplinary class examining one of the most tumultuous and exciting moments in American cultural history, the "Harlem Renaissance." Through consideration of literature, history, politics, art, and music, we will probe the impetus behind, meaning, and legacy of the period described as the "Harlem Renaissance." Readings focus on literary texts, with careful and considerable attention given to historical and autobiographical contexts. We will attempt to come to our own definition of when the Renaissance started and why. We will explore all aspects of the debate surrounding whether it was, as many critics have argued, a flowering of Black art, or whether it was, as others claim, a period when Black artists allowed their work to be appropriated and exploited. We will examine the products of the Renaissance literarily in relation to Modernism, politically in relation to radicalism, and historically in relation to America in the twenties more generally.

Cocktails, As the Jazz Age dawned in the early 1920s, African American artists, writers, and musicians flocked to the neighborhood of Manhattan called Harlem. This "Mecca of the New Negro" soon became home to a cultural revolution, known first as the "New Negro Renaissance" and later termed the "Harlem Renaissance." Repercussions of this cultural revolution, which embraced white as well as black artists, were felt around the world. Its sphere of influence extended from the United States to Europemost notably in Jazz Age ParisAfrica, and the Caribbean. The rich artistic legacy of the Harlem Renaissance ranges from the paintings of Aaron Douglas and Jacob Lawrence to the music of Duke Ellington and Bessie Smith to the writings of Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston. During the boom years of the 1920s, Harlem was a center for fashion, entertainment, and nightlife for African Americans escaping the segregation, racial persecution, and economic deprivation of the deep South. Taking their inspiration from Harlem's political and cultural milieu and from the responses to African art in Europe, artists contributed to Harlem's excitement by creating art that affirmed their identity and introduced black themes into American modernism. The "New Negro Movement" that flourished there and led to the Harlem Renaissance encompassed not only art, literature, music, film, and theater. It was also manifested by the social freedom of Harlem nightlife and the pursuit of hedonism, image-building and race-building, jazz poetics, progressive or socialist politics, racial integration, and Africa as a source of race pride.

Extractions: Museum of Fine Arts, Houston Houston, TX Rhapsodies in Black: Art of the Harlem Renaissance November 22, 1998 - February 14, 1999 Caroline Wiess Law Building L ong regarded by scholars as a key period of African-American art history, the Harlem Renaissance remains one of the most fascinating periods of twentieth-century culture. The migration of black families from the rural south to the urban north, the subsequent concentration of African-American artists in New York City, and the unique exchanges between the African-American, Anglo American, and European cultural communities are some of the defining characteristics of this unique cultural era. It is this artistic and social exchange between distinct communities as well as the expression of the visual arts, music, dance, film, and graphics through the African Diaspora that distinguishes this exhibition. The exhibition is co-curated by Dr. Richard J. Powell, Duke University, and David A. Bailey, University of East London. Rhapsodies in Black is organized by the Hayward Gallery in London, in collaboration with the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., and the Institute of International Visual Arts, London.

Extractions: This site was awarded a Times Pick by the Los Angeles Times on 7/28/98 visitors to the Circle's African American Links pages . Last update 9/12/2001. INTRODUCTION Outside of the art world, people rarely think of the renaissance period describing the written word. This habit has extended, as well. to the Harlem Renaissance; however, the written word was a very important part of this period. There had been Negro writers for at least 140 years. Perhaps, the best known were Charles W. Chestnutt and Paul Laurence Dunbar . Chestnutt's novels included The Conjure Woman and The Wife of His Youth and Other Stories of the Color Line , whereas Dunbar, primarily a poet, was best known for his novel The Sport of the Gods . Chestnut's writing, though moving away from the plantation romanticism which had glorified slavery, possessed realistic flavor, and it emphasized relations based on the divisions of the black and white races rather than developing the interior lives of its characters. At the same time, and to some extent today, most African Americans found positive value in the stereotypical puritan compulsions to order, frugality, temperance, decorum, and frigidity which had always served to distinguish the civilized (i.e., whites) from the darker peoples they enslaved or colonized who had to be tutored because they embodied just the opposite of many of these characteristics.

Extractions: For Primary Students Harlem is a part of New York City. During the 1920's it was home for some of the most famous African-American writers, musicians, and artists. Many African-Americans migrated north to states such as New York in order to escape unfair laws called "Jim Crow laws" in southern states. They were looking for good jobs and opportunities to improve their life. They were looking for a place where they would be treated fairly. Harlem was just such a place. Jazz music became very popular, and many night clubs and dance halls opened their doors to crowds of customers. One dance hall called the Savoy Ballroom often had over 4,000 people , black and white, every night. These customers would enjoy eating, dancing and listening to singers like Bessie Smith, and the music of famous bands led by musicians such as Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, and Count Basie. The musicians, writers and artists of Harlem created a place where the world could see the cultural achievements of African-Americans. Plays, stories, poems and music allowed them to share their pride in their accomplishments. That special time during the 1920's was called the Harlem Renaissance. Did you know?
