year = {2021},
note = {In 2001, Freestyle, a survey exhibition curated by Thelma Golden at
the Studio Museum in Harlem, introduced both a young generation of
artists of African descent and the ambitious yet knowingly opaque term
post-black to a pre 9-11 and pre-Obama world. In Taking Stakes in the
Unknown, Nana Adusei-Poku contextualizes the term post-black in its
socio-historical and cultural context. Whilst exploring its present
legacy and past potential, she examines works by artists who were
defined as part of the post-black generation: Mark Bradford, Leslie
Hewitt, Mickalene Thomas and Hank Willis Thomas – and, by expanding
the scope of the definition, the Black German artist Philip Metz.},
