Roy DeCarava



the art world has lost another great. legendary photographer Roy DeCarava has passed away at 89. my sister just introduced me to his work this year. i knew all about Gordon Parks and read his books but i had no idea there was another black photographer that impacted the art world in the same way. check out the article here. and if you can find it, pick up a copy of The Sweet Flypaper of Life, his collaboration with Langston Hughes. i just bought on amazon.
