Robert Colescott (1925 - 2009) was a prominent African American artist celebrated for his provocative, satirical paintings that confronted social issues, notably racial stereotypes, gender, and class identity. Born in Oakland, CA and studying at UC Berkeley, Colescott utilized parody as a potent tool to scrutinize cultural norms, often recasting historic events or reimagining renowned artworks to explore the absence of Black figures. His distinctive style fused splashy color palettes and caricaturish forms, borrowing from Pop Art, Abstract Expressionism, and Surrealism, among other styles. In 1997, Colescott's influential status was recognized when he became the first African American artist to represent the United States at the Venice Biennale. His work is in the collection of major institutions, such as the Museum of Modern Art and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Colescott’s confrontational exploration of race, sex, and identity left an indelible mark on late 20th-century American art.
