FROM THE MET

Watson Library’s publications from their collection on African American art and artists: The books represent a selection of over eight hundred publications acquired through an initiative launched in July 2020 to significantly enhance our collection of monographs, exhibition catalogs, periodicals, zines, and artists’ books by and about African American art and artists. The project also produced an online artist index of over 600 African American artists from the 17th century to today. Art books are fully available for consultation in Watson Library. More information on using the library is here. View Library Hours.
