Series: Image

The concept of the Black Atlantic has been used to look at Black culture on all sides of the Atlantic in the context of migration, diaspora, and hybridity. This two-volume publication explores philosophical notions and aesthetic forms of temporality in the Black Atlantic. The authors trace a transnational political and aesthetic emancipation movement of intellectuals and artists from the 1930s to the 1980s and beyond.

In the second volume, Angela Stercken shows how temporality and blackness have become catalysts of a political and aesthetic repositioning in the United States in the context of Négritude and global debates since the 1940s/50s. With conceptual interventions in urban space, temporal figurations of a Black Aesthetic, and transmedia forms of distribution, a global contemporariness gains weight in the 1960s/70s, with repercussions until today.
