A milestone publication shedding light on the groundbreaking contributions of an under-recognized artist whose art and activism resonates in contemporary culture
Published with Studio Museum in Harlem.
Collaborating with an engineer at the Radio Corporation of America, American artist Tom Lloyd developed a highly experimental and technologically advanced art practice in the 1960s that challenged popular understandings of the work and role of Black artists. In 1968 his pioneering artwork was the focus of the inaugural exhibition at the Studio Museum in Harlem, Electronic Refractions II.Designed by Miko McGinty and richly illustrated with full-color reproductions of artworks, studio photographs and an illustrated chronology, Tom Lloyd also includes new essays by former Studio Museum curator Connie H. Choi, conservator Reinhard Bek, historian Krista Thompson, Studio Museum senior curatorial assistant Habiba Hopson, and artists Paul Stephen Benjamin, Nikita Gale and Glenn Ligon.
Artist, activist and community organizer Tom Lloyd (1929-96) was an early pioneer of using electric light as an artistic medium. Born and raised in Jamaica, Queens, he was the founder of the Store Front Museum/Paul Robeson Theatre, Queens's first art museum.
