Overview

An original approach to refuting the negative perceptions of black people in western society. For over a decade, Gordon de la Mothe has used images as his point of departure in his teaching. His study of the social and historical context in which derogatory images of Africans were constructed leads to a recognition of their distortion and inaccuracy. An artist as well as a teacher, the images that he reproduces and creates are in vivid contrast: contemporary, liberated and true. Lavishly illustrated in color.
