Renaissance Women by Alice Mizrachi

July 8, 2022 Melanie Katz

The Harlem Renaissance was the period from the 1910s through the mid-1930s when the New York City neighborhood of Harlem became the centerpiece of African-American culture, bursting with Black artists, poets, musicians, writers, dancers, and activists. “Renaissance Women,” by New York-based artist and educator Alice Mizrachi, is a sculpture of an abstracted feminine face. It looks like a line drawing inscribed in the air, as it is made of a single metal tube. Fittingly, the sculpture stands in Marcus Garvey Park in East Harlem, which is named for Harlem Renaissance activist Marcus Garvey. The sculpture honors the women of the Harlem Renaissance, like Zora Neale Hurston, Josephine Baker, Bessie Smith, Ethel Waters, Billie Holiday, Dorothy West, Augusta Savage, Lois Mailou Jones, and many more. Many of these women are still household names, and their lives and their work are still influential for scores of artists working today.
