EMMA AMOS (1937 - 2020) Highstep. Mixed media, including watercolor, pastel, ink, and collage with stencil on wove paper, circa 1983. 1244x952 mm; 49x37 1/2 inches. Signed in watercolor, lower left. Provenance: acquired from G. R. N'Namdi Gallery, Detroit; private collection, Michigan. Beginning in 1983, Emma Amos diverted from traditional stretched canvas and started using mixed media and collage on both handwoven and printed fabric and paper. Her 1980s works explore African American figures in motion, from her 1983 depictions of dancers to athletes to her 1986 Falling Series, which define the Black experience in America. Highstep shares its use of silhouette in depicting moving figures with Amos's works on canvas Out in Front, 1982, and Streaks, 1983, both included in the artist's recent retrospective Emma Amos Color Odyseey. Harris pp. 113 and 116.
