As mission-driven collectors, Bernard I. Lumpkin and Carmine D. Boccuzzi have championed emerging artists of African descent through museum loans and institutional support. But there has never been an opportunity to consider their acclaimed collection as a whole until now. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEdited by writer Antwaun Sargent (author of \u003ci\u003eThe New Black Vanguard: Photography Between Art and Fashion\u003c\/i\u003e), \u003ci\u003eYoung, Gifted and Black\u003c\/i\u003e draws from this collection to shed new light on works by contemporary artists of African descent. At a moment when debates about the politics of visibility within the art world have taken on renewed urgency, and establishment voices such as the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e are declaring that \"it has become undeniable that African American artists are making much of the best American art today,\" \u003ci\u003eYoung, Gifted and Black\u003c\/i\u003e takes stock of how these new voices are impacting the way we think about identity, politics and art history itself. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eYoung, Gifted and Black\u003c\/i\u003e contextualizes artworks with contributions from artists, curators and other experts. It features a wide-ranging interview with Bernard Lumpkin and Thelma Golden, director and chief curator of the Studio Museum in Harlem; and an in-depth essay by Antwaun Sargent situating Lumpkin in a long lineage of Black art patrons. A landmark publication, this book illustrates what it means (in the words of Nina Simone) to be young, gifted and Black in contemporary art. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtists include\u003c\/b\u003e: Mark Bradford, David Hammons, Glenn Ligon, Kerry James Marshall, Julie Mehretu, Adam Pendleton, Pope.L, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Henry Taylor, Mickalene Thomas, Lynette Yiadom-Boakye, Tunji Adeniyi-Jones, Sadie Barnette, Kevin Beasley, Jordan Casteel, Jonathan Lyndon Chase, Bethany Collins, Noah Davis, Cy Gavin, Allison Janae Hamilton, Tomashi Jackson, Samuel Levi Jones, Deana Lawson, Norman Lewis, Eric N.
