Jacob Lawrence (September 7, 1917 â June 9, 2000) was an African-American painter known for his portrayal of African-American life. Lawrence referred to his style as dynamic cubism , though by his own account the primary influence was not so much French art as the shapes and colors of Harlem.
The Basics: History Painter is an appropriate title, although Jacob Lawrence himself preferred Expressionist, and he was certainly best-qualified to describe his own work. Lawrence is one of the best known 20th-century African-American painters, along with Romare Bearden. While Lawrence is often associated with the Harlem Renaissance, it's not accurate.
