Committed to Memory: The Art of the Slave Ship Icon Hardcover -
by Cheryl Finley
From the rear cover
"An original and brilliantly conceived account of how the horrors of the transatlantic trade in human cargo have been visualized in art and culture over more than two centuries. Finley has written a nuanced and provocative book that leaves an imprint on one's mind as indelible as the slave ship icon itself."--Kellie Jones, author of EyeMinded: Living and Writing Contemporary Art
"Stimulating and insightful. Finley hones in on the cultural and political strategies that have animated and illustrated the impact of the Atlantic slave trade."--Deborah Willis, author of Posing Beauty: African American Images from the 1890s to the Present
