Description:... Stylistically and ideologically, David C. Driskell's printmaking is an integral component of his total creative practice. Reflected in his work in the print media is a dialogue, evolving since the beginning of the twentieth century, about African art, Modernism, and the role of the African American artist in the twentieth century. Driskell, through his more than fifty years of printmaking, has skillfully negotiated these currents to develop his own expressionistic brand of Modernism.
