Black Artists Archive
The Black Artists Archive’s (BAA) mission is to leverage the rich histories of self-sustained Detroit Black artists and collectives to foster a nurturing environment for creativity, exhibition, learning, and the preservation of Black art history and visual culture. We strive to create dynamic spaces where people are empowered to engage with and contribute to the vibrancy of Black artistic expressions. Our vision is to dismantle the idea of conventional art history by engaging in a new model with local visual culture that exposes and connects all communities to the vast experiences of Black artists. Ultimately, we seek to establish a framework that will be expandable to other centers of Black artists throughout the U.S.
