Sobre este artículo
1971. (Holden, Herbert). Four original illustrations capturing scenes of protest. Two focus on the central figure of a young Black man, one who is raising his fist in a timeless and insistent gesture of power and belief, and the other who is pointing with a posture that suggests purpose and urgency. Another image shows a black man being dragged away by an armed police officer, the expressions of other protestors hovering over them in the background. The final illustration assembles together emblematic images of the early 1970s social movements: a hand forming a peace sign, various illicit drugs, a revolver labeled "Saturday Night Special," a sign demanding "End the War," a couple on a motorcycle, a white woman wearing a fierce expression gripping a sign proclaiming "U.S.A. Love it or Leave it," and a Black man with a raised fist. Jarring in their continued relevancy, all the illustrations are finely executed in mixed media, including tempera, watercolor, conté crayon, pen, and ink over graphite on board. All are dated 1971, with "AMR" as copyright, while two are further signed "Holden." "AMR" refers to Applied Management Research, who commissioned the illustration, perhaps for marketing purposes. At the verso of the man with the raised fist is the title "Symbolic Gestures." Chips to edges of boards, and corners somewhat rubbed. Near fine.
