optatio Posted March 4, 2017 Report Posted March 4, 2017 This topic reminded me that I bought in a German Antiquariat an exhibition catalog on the subject: JUS' JASS: Correlations of Painting and Afro-American Classical Music. Exhibition catalog, October 28 - December 4, 1983, Kenkeleba Gallery, New York. Foreword by Dr. Steve Cannon. 22 works reproduced in black-and-white: With an inserted typographical list of paintings not listed in the catalogue: Has anyone visited this exhibition? Quote
