London's Black Artists and Models in the Jazz Age (Drawing over the Colour Line, Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Geography)
Dr Caroline Bressey and Dr Gemma Romain (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø Geography) are examining the Ìýrole of Black and Asian individuals in the changing artistic, social, cultural and political scenes that emerged in inter-War London. The AHRC-funded project, Drawing over the Colour Line: Geographies of art and cosmopolitan politics in London 1919 - 1939, will result in a freely accessible database of details of the artworks created which represent Black people and those created by Black people based in Britain during this time.
