Goree Island Painter (aka Slave Island Back)
Photography by Frank Stewart (born 1949) African-American photographer based in New York, best known for photographing Jazz musicians.
"At the Slave Castle (in Senegal, a museum and memorial to the victims of the Atlantic
slave trade), we came upon this artist making paintings, but for me it was this strong back of a Black man that caught my attention, a metaphor for slavery."#frankstewart #photographer #photography #photoworld #americanphotographer #colorphotography #theback #goreeisland #fotografia #fotografie #fotografo #blackphotographer #artistquotes

Only God to Watch My Back, NY, 1987
Photograph by Frank Stewart (born 1949) African-American photographer based in New York, best known for photographing Jazz musicians.
"This is T.C. (Top Cat), who just got out of jail. I asked if I could take his picture, and he said if I did, he wanted me to show where he got shot in the back. So he took off his shirt
and turned around. Then he said I should wait until he put his metal for survival (his cross) behind him because only God was watching his back."#frankstewart #photographer #photography #photoworld #onlygodhasgotmyback #americanphotographer #blackandwhitephotography #theback #fotografia #fotografie #fotografo #blackphotographer #gotyourback #artistquotes
