SEPARATE CINEMA: THE FIRST 100 YEARS OF BLACK POSTER

Separate Cinema: The First 100 Years of Black Poster Art Hardcover – September 18, 2014 by John Kisch (Editor), Tony Nourmand (Editor), Spike Lee (Afterword), Henry Louis Gates (Foreword), Peter Doggett (Contributor) A visual feast, these images recount the diverse and historic journey of the Black film industry from the earliest days of Hollywood to the present day.
This magnificent volume is a celebration of the first 100 years of black film poster art. A visual feast, these images recount the diverse and historic journey of the black film industry from the earliest days of Hollywood to the present day, accompanied by insightful accompanying text, a foreword by black history authority and renowned academic Henry Louis Gates, Jr. and an afterword by Hollywood director Spike Lee. These posters have meaning for young and old alike, and possess the power to transcend ethnicity. They capture the spirit and energy of an earlier time, reminding people of the pioneers of the past, those courageous and daring African American filmmakers, entertainers and artists whose dreams and struggles paved the way for future generations. The wealth of imagery on these pages is taken from the Separate Cinema Archive, maintained by archive director John Kisch. The most extensive private holdings of African-American film memorabilia in the world, it contains over 35,000 authentic movie posters and photographs from over 30 countries. This stunning coffee table book represents some of the archive's greatest highlights.

About the Author John Kisch is one of America's leading archivists, the quintessential word on rare and vintage poster collecting and the founder of The Separate Cinema Archive. A commercial photographer by profession, Kisch currently lives in New York's scenic Hudson Valley.
