ANTHONY BARBOZA (1944- )


Harlem. 1971.
Silver print, the image measuring 33¾x23 cm, 13¼x9 inches, the sheet 35½x28 cm, 14x11 inches; with Barboza's signature, title, and date in ink on verso.

Barboza is largely self-taught with a stylistic intuitive vision that he refers to as "eye dreaming," or "a state of mind that's almost like meditation." Both his commercial work, including fashion campaigns for Essence and Ebony magazines and celebrity portraits (Miles Davis, Aretha Franklin, James Baldwin, and Romare Bearden, to name but a few), and his personal projects embrace Black American Culture and celebrate his dedication to its communities.
