Aaron Douglas is an American artist recognized as a central figure of the Harlem Renaissance. Working primarily in painting and mural-making, he developed a distinctive graphic vocabulary of silhouetted figures, concentric circles, and muted, layered color planes drawn from African sculptural traditions and Art Deco geometry. His murals for the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem remain among his most significant public works.
