What is this show about?
Coinciding with the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr. in January and Black History Month in February, the Art League of Long Island is hosting a group exhibition featuring African-‐American artists of Long Island titled “Black Voices.” The participating artists are from Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau and Suffolk counties, and encompasses varied categories of art works: paintings, drawings, photographs, sculpture and installation art; ranging from the realistic to the abstract, and representing varied perspectives from aesthetic to political. Whether or not these artists depict the black experience in their work, they cannot help but express who they are, their heritage and cultural experience.
Charles Lilly, Tituba, oil on canvas
A “Medium” refers to the materials used to create a work of art. The plural form of medium in art is “Media”. Some Artists use traditional media such as oil paint, or stone for sculpture, others may use “Mixed Media” combining one or more mediums; and some artists
create “Collages.”

Art can be viewed in many ways.
You can look at art subjectively, objectively or both. If you look at art
subjectively you may be asking yourself if you like it or how it makes you feel.
If you look at it objectively, you can analyze it in terms of what you see, the place it has in art history, and the technical parts and skill. Objective traits include the elements of art such as: line, shape, color, form, value (light /dark) and texture.

Ernani Silva, Family, Mixed Media
The “Subject” in visual Art is an object, scene, or incident (noun: a person, place or thing) chosen by the Artist for representation. Sometimes the subject is easy to figure out, and sometimes you have to find clues in the image or the title:
