James Denmark Art
American, b. 1938
James Denmark was born in Winter Haven, Florida, in 1936 and was raised in an artistic family. His grandmother, a wire sculptor and quilt artist, exposed him to color and form at an early age. He was also influenced by his grandfather, a bricklayer noted for his unique custom design molds. Denmark has a natural feeling for the improvisational medium of collage, developing his unique signature style. Utilizing brightly hand-colored papers, fabric and textures, Denmark creates compositions that reflect African American heritage and culture. Denmark has had over 60 one-man exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows. Works of art by James Denmark are a part of well recognized private and corporate collections in the USA as well as in Mexico, South Africa, Europe, Japan and Africa, including New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Denmark has received numerous awards and recognition, including the 39th Annual Printing Industry Award given by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and the Living Legends Award presented by the National Urban League.
