Lastly, it reflects on the evolution of the African American community, its tribulations, triumphs, challenges, and prospects.

International Cooperation in Art at the Postwar Moment, 1945-1948
Volume Editor:
This volume, edited by Éva Forgács, with contributions from art historians from across Europe and the Americas, analyzes the artistic initiatives of the short time span between the end of World War II and the onset of the Cold War.
