H arlem Renaissance - An African American literary and art movement in the uptown Manhattan neighborhood of Harlem in the mid- and late-1920s. The community developed greatly from post-World War I emigration from the South, to become the economic, political, and cultural center of black America. The writers, painters, and sculptors of the Harlem Renaissance celebrated the cultural traditions of African -Americans. The Harlem Renaissance has also been called the "New Negro Movement" after the title of art historian Alain Locke’s book The New Negro , which urged black artists to reclaim their ancestral heritage as a means of strengthening their own expression Examples of their visual works: Henry Ossawa Tanner (American, 1859-1937), The Banjo Lesson , 1893, 49 x 35 1/2 inches, oil on canvas , Hampton University Museum, Hampton, Virginia.

At the time, it was known as the "New Negro Movement", named after the 1925 anthology by Alain Locke . Though it was centered in the Harlem neighborhood of New York City , many French-speaking black writers from African and Caribbean colonies who lived in Paris were also influenced by the Harlem Renaissance. Historians disagree as to when the Harlem Renaissance began and ended. The Harlem Renaissance is unofficially recognized to have spanned from about 1919 until the early or mid 1930s. Many of its ideas lived on much longer. The zenith of this "flowering of Negro literature", as James Weldon Johnson preferred to call the Harlem Renaissance, was placed between 1924 (the year that

February is African American History Month! A frican American art This article was excerpted from Africana: The Encyclopedia of the African and African American Experience , Second Edition. Edited by Henry Louis Gates Jr. and Kwame Anthony Appiah. Oxford University Press, April 2005. By Richard J. Powell The Harlem Renaissance The social and political anxieties that many African Americans felt just after World War I (1914-1918) were alleviated, in part, by mass migrations to the urban North. Northern cities offered a respite from the repressive attitudes and mandates of the old Southern order. The new racial compositions of cities like Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, New York, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Chicago, and Saint Louis, in combination with a heightened social consciousness and a seemingly unbound desire for leisure and escapism, conspired to help create the cultural phenomenon known as the New Negro movement. Part social engineering and part spontaneous expression, this Harlem Renaissance (as the cultural movement later became known) was realized by a mix of American movers and shakers: social reformers, political activists, cultural elites, progressives in public policy and education, and, of course, artists. Although each of these constituencies had its own reasons for promoting African American

Elements of The Movements Importance of Music, Art, and Dance The Harlem Renaissance, like the Hip Hop movement, was not simply just about music, but reached also into other forms of art such as dance and visual arts. Both attempted to bring recognition to the African American community in a time without civil rights, in a time when the outside world chose to ignore the world of Harlem and the larger community of the Black race. Unlike the Hip Hop movement (which was driven by those in poverty), the Harlem Renaissance was started by a rising middle class of African Americans. Jazz and Blues were brought from the South to the North by African Americans with Great Migration which started after World War I. While Hip Hop expresses its message through the lyrics of rapping, the Harlem Renaissance accomplished this mainly through literature and poetry. This is very interesting in that there was a reversal in the way music and poetry went together. Langston Hughes, an prolific poet of the Harlem Renaissance, used his poetry to express music. Rappers during the Hip Hop Movement use music to express their own brand of poetry. Both movements spread relatively quickly across America and in both movements, the music of the time became mainstream. However, the massive growth and popularity of the movements contributed in some ways to the demise of the original purposes of the movements. For instance, during the Harlem Renaissance, artists competed against each other for sponsorship and began to compromise ideals and beliefs for the sponsorship. Rap artists began to speak more for commercialized reasons rather than the poverty of the urban inner-city which led to its beginnings.

Artists by Movement: The Harlem Renaissance early 1920's to 1930's The Harlem Renaissance was a flowering of African-American social thought that was expressed through the visual arts, as well as through music (Louis Armstrong, Eubie Blake, Fats Waller and Billie Holiday), literature (Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and W.E.B. DuBois), theater (Paul Robeson) and dance (Josephine Baker). Centered in the Harlem district of New York City, the New Negro Movement (as it was called at the time) had a profound influence across the United States and even around the world. The intellectual and social freedom of the era attracted many Black Americans from the rural south to the industrial centers of the north - and especially to New York City. Artists at the core of the Harlem Renaissance movement included William H. Johnson Lois Mailou Jones and the sculptor and printmaker Sargent Claude Johnson . Other prominent artists associated with the Harlem Renaissance included Jacob Lawrence Archibald Motley and Romare Bearden Later artists influenced by the movement included Charles Sebree Hale Woodruff Beauford Delaney John Biggers and Ernie Barnes (Barnes' Sugar Shack is the now-famous painting featured on the closing credits of the TV show Good Times Artists closely associated with the Harlem Renaissance are listed below.

Not white art painting black...let's bare our arms and plunge them deep through laughter, through pain, through sorrow, through hope, through disappointment, into the very depths of the souls of our people and drag forth material crude, rough, neglected. Then let's sing it, dance it, write it, paint it. Let's do the impossible. Let's create something transcendentally material, mystically objective. Earthy. Spiritually earthy.

He painted murals for public buildings and produced illustrations and cover designs for many black publications including The Crisis and Opportunity . In 1940 he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, where he founded the Art Department at Fisk University and tought for twenty nine years.

The piano had been carved in an extraordinary style to reveal their family heritage as slaves. This 1990 play reminds us that many enslaved African artists were highly skilled and that these skills were passed down through the generations. Many scholars of Harlem Renaissance art tend to overlook this fact and only credit artists trained in European methods as true artists. What impact did this have on the psyche of black artists? Take, for instance, the work of sculptor Edmonia Lewis (1845-1911) which largely centered around European themes. She never wanted to be identified as a black artist. Harlem Renaissance sculpture incorporated a freedom that blended European and African techniques to express African-American themes.

s the Jazz age dawned in the early 1920's, African American artists, writers and musicians flocked to a district of Manhattan called Harlem. 'The Mecca of the New Negro' soon became home to a cultural revolution, repercussions of which would be felt around the world, from the USA to Europe and Africa. The rich artistic legacy of the Harlem Renaissance rages from the music of Duke Ellington and Bessie Smith, to the paintings of Aaron Douglas and the poetry of Langston Hughes. This Web site provides an introduction to the exhibition Rhapsodies in Black: Art of the Harlem Renaissance, curated by David A. Bailey and Richard J. Powell and organised by the Hayward Gallery, London in collaboration with the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington DC., and the Institute of International Visual Arts (inIVA). The Web site combines images and text to elaborate on some of the key themes in the exhibition: The Harlem Renaissance, Representing the New Negro, Modernism and Modernity, A Blues Aesthetic, Imaginging Africa, Haiti and Images of Black Nationhood. The Web site does not seek to be "encyclopaedic" in its scope but rather seeks to provide a brief introduction to the exhibition and its critical and curatorial framework through a small selection of images and soundbites drawn primarily from the exhibition catalogue essays.

Home The Harlem Renaissance: Literature, Music, and Art Note : This assignment is based upon the Harlem Renaissance Webquest created by Alyssa Munski and Andrea Witt,. Introduction Oh, Happy Day! The St. Louis Art Museum in Forest Park is preparing a new exhibit featuring the Harlem Renaissance. The Design Committee is looking for students to present them with ideas for what should be on display. The name of the exhibit is The Arts of The Harlem Renaissance. Therefore, they are looking for pieces of literature and poetry, art, and music that were influential to this time period. They are also concerned with having accurate information regarding the lives and accomplishments of important artists of the Harlem Renaissance. The Harlem Renaissance represents a time when African-Americans were exploring their writing, artistic, and musical talents in order that they may communicate their thoughts and opinions regarding the condition of black communities in the United States during the first three to four decades of the twentieth century. Keeping in mind that the word renaissance means "rebirth," what artistic pieces were born out of this era? Who are the major figures involved in this movement, and what were their contributions to the Harlem Renaissance?
