Research Abstract |
This study has clarified the cultural and artistic connections between the United States and Soviet Russia, particularly ones that African American artists/intellectuals led from the 1920s to the 1960s. The detailed findings regarding such initiatives testify to a unique subject position of the Renaissance artists. Existing researches have demonstrated that their aesthetic subjectivity was inescapably under the colonial as well as commercial influences of white patrons. My study has, on the other hand, substantiated their contradictory independence, by which they tested the validity of their aesthetic concerns through their own international exchanges. Since the present study has verified the strain of activity up to the era of Cold War and Civil Rights Movement, a new dimension of the Harlem Renaissance's political initiative is at the same time authenticated.
