A spectral hue
(Book)
Copies
Description
"For generations, the marsh-surrounded town of Shimmer, Maryland, has played host to a loose movement of African-American artists, all working in different media, but all utilizing the same haunting color. Landscape paintings, trompe l'oeil quilts, decorated dolls, mixed-media assemblages, and more, all [feature] the same peculiar hue, a shifting pigment somewhere between purple and pink. Graduate student Xavier Wentworth has been drawn to Shimmer, hoping to study the work of artists like quilter Hazel Whitby and landscape painter Shadrach Grayson in detail, having experienced something akin to an epiphany when viewing a Hazel Whitby tapestry as a child"--cover.
