The 1969 exhibition 5 + 1, and now Revisiting 5 + 1, are reminders that the history of Black Art in the United States is diverse rather than monolithic.

Haven’t been able to research this extensively, but I’m fairly certain photographer Jacinda Russell may the source of all this funny. I was lucky enough to be among the earliest recipients of her emoji art history texts in Dec. 2012. Her recreations were also posted to instagram. A few weeks ago, she posted a more finalized form to her blog.
You repeated the last image twice instead of using the first one! If silly texts I sent are going to inspire a meme I’d at least like it to make sense.
