Lovell’s poetical installations invoke the lost voices of African American ancestry. 

Whitfield Lovell is internationally renowned for his installations that incorporate masterful Conté crayon likenesses of African Americans from between the Emancipation Proclamation and the Civil Rights Movement. Using vintage photography as his source, Lovell often pairs his subjects with found objects, evoking personal memories, ancestral connections and the collective American past.

Lovell is a graduate of Cooper Union. He shows with DC Moore Gallery and his work has featured recently in Supernatural (Toledo Museum of Art, Minneapolis Institute of Art) and The Dirty South (Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, High Museum, MCA Denver).

Kellie Jones is chair of the Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies at Columbia University.

Julie L. McGee is a curator at the University Museums of the University of Delaware. Prior to this, she was a professor at Bowdoin College in Maine.
