His works are widely held in both and public collections worldwide.</p> <p>“Wiz is thought of by some as a trans-cultural visionary. His work simultaneously draws on and pushes beyond fixed spaces and identities in a dynamic search for unbounded universal truths. His recent work typically draws on the deeper meaning of African symbolism and composes from them enigmatic messages with intriguing titles. He has also been producing multilayered sensual works recently”.</p> <p>—<a class="external text" href="http://www.african-encounters.com/" rel="nofollow">African Encounters</a></p> </blockquote> <p>Watch a video profile on him <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVA0C1GAUd8">here</a>.</p> </blockquote>http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26905848189http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26905848189Tue, 10 Jul 2012 09:56:43 -0500ArtAbstractAfrican ArtPainting<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6na9gJ95P1qkcxm4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://soulpicnic.tumblr.com/post/26497906676/great-typography-great-lp">soulpicnic</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>great typography; great LP</p> </blockquote>http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26516441303http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26516441303Wed, 04 Jul 2012 16:52:16 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6k8wf33ZT1qhjcieo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://knowledgeequalsblackpower.tumblr.com/post/26391647294/afro-mexicans-discourse-of-race-and-identity-in">knowledgeequalsblackpower</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Afro-Mexicans-Chege-Githiora/dp/1592216471">Afro-Mexicans: Discourse of “Race” and Identity in the African Diaspora</a> by Chege Githiora</p> </blockquote>http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26445188517http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26445188517Tue, 03 Jul 2012 16:38:38 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m6iuy2Y2nw1qguphqo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26444972258http://blackboxpressstudio.tumblr.com/post/26444972258Tue, 03 Jul 2012 16:35:19 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lz11u1Omvl1rp6xbno1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://blackhistoryseries.tumblr.com/post/17209694726/huey-p-newton-blackhistorymonth-tribute-design">blackhistoryseries</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Huey P.
