Jacob Lawrence’s Style
• Aesthetics– Elemental, flattened shapes– Opaque and highly saturated color– Repeating patterns w/ emphatic breaks– Frequent use of grouping– Frequent use of limited space– Critics: “unsophisticated” and “barbaric”
• Content– The African-American experience– The plight of the poor– Family values– Manual labor (“builders”)

• Technique– Classified as “expressive cubism” or “dynamic
cubism”• Stresses simultaneity of action or experience (as
opposed to simultaneity of being)
• Influences– African abstraction– Rhythms of jazz and oratory– Mexican muralists
• Artistic goal– “For me, a painting should have three things:
universality, clarity, and strength.”
