Black Art in America

Contemporary Art from Black Art in America

IP Casino Gallery

A top priority for THE BAIA FOUNDATION is providing communities of color access to and education on the visual arts, particularly those that effectively reflect these communities. This priority is embodied in the Foundation’s second goal which is to promote the intersections between art and activism in Black neighborhoods and schools while encouraging a strong sense of purpose and unity. Consistently, the Foundation deeply values our relationships with the communities we serve, interact with, and engage in an on-going basis. For it is these communities of everyday people THE BAIA FOUNDATION does its most important work.

Artists included in this exhibition are:

Fabian Williams
Alfred Conteh
Najjar Abdul-Musawwir
Lillian Blades
Mildred Thompson
Daphne Arthur
Khalif Thompson
Ronald Walton
Lavett Ballard
Obiora Nwankwo
