André Leon Gray is from Raleigh, North Carolina. He uses everyday objects such as toys and household items to create art that explores the lived experiences of Black people.
Black Magic (It’s Fantastic) honors the first racially-integrated college basketball game in the South, which was played in secret because it was in violation of segregation laws in place in 1944. The game was played at what is now North Carolina Central University. The “Secret Game” became a catalyst for the integration of professional sports, or the “Black Magic” era. The artist uses objects such as headbands and cowrie shells as metaphors to tell the story and start a conversation about history.
Art and artists have the power to highlight and celebrate people, places, and events that might get overlooked. How does Gray do this in Black Magic? What is something in history that people may not know about that you think should be celebrated?
