Explanation of Spiral
This collective was formed as a direct response to the parade in Washington for Jobs and Freedom, a large political rally for human rights, which attracted almost a quarter of one million supporters for racial equality. Spiral was created as a reaction to this by Richard Mayhew, Romare Bearden and Hale Woodruff to discuss how African -American artists can respond to racism and represent their black community.
Many artists associated with the group are abstract expressionist, but their work is ignored by many supporters of abstract expressionism, such as Clement Greenberg critics; Who says their art is too autobiography to consider.
