Betye Saar: Extending the Frozen Moment African AmericansContributions by James Christen Steward, Deborah Willis, Kellie Jones, Richard Cndida Smith, Lowery Stokes Sims. Betye Saar, born in Los Angeles in 1926, emerged in the 1960s as a powerful figure in the redefinition of African American art. Over the past forty years, she has injected African American visual histories into mainstream visual culture by blending spiritual, political, and cultural iconography to create complex works with universal impact.
