Editorial Review:

Product Description:
African-American artist Aminah Robinson (born 1940) produces an array of richly textures, colourful multi-media works. Grand collages on fabric, sculptures, drawings, paintings, carvings, quilts and books weave memory into works that document her own and her community's history. "Symphonic Poem" brings together more than 100 of Robinson's works with essays exploring her life, African influences and spirituality in her art, and her work in relation to that of other contemporary African-American artists. Throughout this book Robinson herself speaks about her life, her family, her travels and her work, and provides a view of The Dollhouse, the workspace she has built in her backyard.
