Camille Billops Art

1933-2019

Camille Josephine Billops was an award-winning African-American visual artist, documentary filmmaker and art historian. Her etchings are in the US Library of Congress and were included in the renowned exhibition "Creative Space: Fifty Years of Robert Blackburn's Printmaking Workshop." Her films have been shown on Public Television and at the Museum of Modern Art; Finding Christa won the Grand Jury Award at Sundance. Billops and her husband James Hatch, Professor of English at City College New York, co-founded the Hatch-Billops Archives of Black American Cultural History, a collection of visual materials, oral histories, and thousands of books chronicling black artists in the visual performing arts.

Monuments - Highly Detailed Allegorical, Surreal Etching with Multiple Figures
By David Becker
Located in Chicago, IL
"Descriptions I have heard or read of my work, most of which either delight or offend me, are: allegorical, apocalyptic, provocative, prophetic, dream-like, surreal, fantastic, weird, frightening, disturbing, demanding, despairing, disgusting, irrelevant, inspiring, old, new-old, fascinating, morbid, medieval, bizarre, cathartic, mystery-plays (I like that), and well drawn." - David Becker David Becker Monuments etching & engraving 21h x 31w in 53.34h x 78.74w cm A.P.
