The Black Index examines the work of six contemporary artists—Dennis Delgado, Alicia Henry, Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle, Titus Kaphar, Whitfield Lovell, and Lava Thomas—who utilize drawing, sculpture, and digital media to subvert traditional colonialist representations. By transforming photographic source material, these artists challenge the medium's perceived objectivity and historical authority, offering a new framework for Black self-representation that resists simplistic classification.
