African American and American Indian artist Richard Mayhew was a pivotal member of the movement headed by Romare Bearden, consisting of the most important black artists of the Abstract Expressionist era. This book explores his art but also discusses the critical exclusion from the history of art of Native American and African American artists who are not figurative or ""narrative"" and creates a critical framework for reconsideration of such art.
