God Made My Face: A Collective Portrait of James Baldwin
Baldwin’s life and legacy as remembered by a pantheon of artists and writers. God Made My Face brings together an impressive assembly of contributors, ranging from Baldwin biographer David Leeming to novelist Jamaica Kincaid and Moonlight director Barry Jenkins, to create a memorial mosaic: one that not only mirrors Baldwin’s various tones but also closely examines his singular contributions to cinema, theater, the essay and Black American critical studies. These essays are illustrated by artwork from modern and contemporary artists who were either personal contemporaries of Baldwin or directly inspired by his work. Published by Dancing Foxes Press/Brooklyn Museum and edited by Hilton Als.
