An assortment of objects \u2013 orange lilies, a Rubik\u2019s cube, a bust of Nefertiti, an effigy of King Tutankhamun \u2013 are delicately and intentionally placed together against a shamrock green backdrop. From the right, a black arm wearing a gold bangle extends into the frame holding a chipped \u2018Shirley card\u2019 (a test card used by photographers since the Forties named after a white female model whose skin tone was used to help configure film colours), putting it in conversation with the other artifacts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This methodical image is called <em>Asiatic Lilies<\/em> (2017), and was arranged and shot by Ethiopian-American photographer, Awol Erizku, a still yet striking example of what Sargent refers to as \u201cvisual activism\u201d.

Aperture, who do amazing photo books and have an amazing record in photography, asked me if I wanted to do a book [and] if so, what would it be? And I said I think the most exciting thing happening in photography right now is the way that black photographers working globally are thinking about identity, beauty, about photography itself, and how they can reimagine the possibilities of the medium. Almost a year later, we have <em>The New Black Vanguard<\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"interview-question\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KD: How did you decide which photographers and works you wanted to include, and how did you approach compiling their work?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AS: In the book, you have a group of photographers who are not only thinking about art or fashion, they\u2019re thinking about how those two mediums work together. There\u2019s a deep sense of history of black portraiture in each of their photographs and each of their practices. I was looking at that, and one of the really interesting things is that this book is 300 odd pages long. It could have been 3,000 pages. There [are] just so many black photographers working in this way. For me, what it really came down to was having different points of view represented in the book. Across each of the portfolios, you get a different sense of a photographic concern. They\u2019re grappling with concerns around identity, power, the history of the medium, but also how to create the possibility for a future desire or future kind of thinking. These images are very much in the present, but they reference the past, and they look towards the future.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":82805,"id":82805,"title":"Nxedlana_Late Leisure - We Are Data Mines","filename":"Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","filesize":299971,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/new-gen-black-photographers-beauty-power-representation-antwuan-sargent\/nxedlana_late-leisure-we-are-data-mines\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"nxedlana_late-leisure-we-are-data-mines","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":82752,"date":"2020-01-23 14:23:08","modified":"2020-01-23 14:23:08","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1500,"height":1088,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":93,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","medium-width":1500,"medium-height":1088,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","medium_large-width":1500,"medium_large-height":1088,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","large-width":1500,"large-height":1088,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","1536x1536-width":1500,"1536x1536-height":1088,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","2048x2048-width":1500,"2048x2048-height":1088,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Nxedlana_Late-Leisure-We-Are-Data-Mines-e1579789402958.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1500,"wpvr_mobile-height":1088}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"10","caption":"Jamal Nxedlana, Late Leisure, 2019.

What is it about the fashion image in particular that allows for that?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AS: Fashion images are the most consumed images in our culture. We see them everywhere: billboards, on Instagram, on social media, in lifestyle magazines. I think that\u2019s the language that most people come to understand the possibility of a photograph through. You get people, subjects and models and photographers really expressing their desires, and really thinking about the photograph as a site of construction. Particularly with fashion photography, you have so many people coming together to collaborate to make those images. From the hair people, to the makeup, to the fashion designer, to the photographer and also the editors. I thought that all\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of those decisions are really thoughtful, and those decisions are really concerted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The people are making conscious decisions to present the body, or notions of beauty, or notions of identity, in a certain way. It can be a space of documentation, but the fashion image is a space where all other genres of photography collide. If you\u2019re thinking of someone in the book, Nadine Ijewere, a British photographer \u2013 she loves a location. Her images of black women are often in these lush landscapes. In that image, you have landscape photography colliding with fashion photography, colliding with portrait photography, [and] all of these kinds of ideas around genres, and the mixing of genres, happens all the time in a fashion image.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":82757,"id":82757,"title":"NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559","filename":"NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","filesize":460587,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/new-gen-black-photographers-beauty-power-representation-antwuan-sargent\/nbv_070_obasi_img_6559\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"nbv_070_obasi_img_6559","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":82752,"date":"2020-01-22 11:24:04","modified":"2020-01-23 09:34:06","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1280,"height":1920,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","thumbnail-width":64,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","medium-width":1280,"medium-height":1920,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","medium_large-width":1280,"medium_large-height":1920,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","large-width":1280,"large-height":1920,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","1536x1536-width":1024,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","2048x2048-width":1280,"2048x2048-height":1920,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":8,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_070_OBASI_IMG_6559-e1579789208755.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1280,"wpvr_mobile-height":1920}},{"ID":82797,"id":82797,"title":"IMG_6804","filename":"IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","filesize":364249,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/new-gen-black-photographers-beauty-power-representation-antwuan-sargent\/img_6804-2\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"img_6804-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":82752,"date":"2020-01-23 09:32:31","modified":"2020-01-23 09:32:31","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1280,"height":1920,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","thumbnail-width":64,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","medium-width":1280,"medium-height":1920,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","medium_large-width":1280,"medium_large-height":1920,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","large-width":1280,"large-height":1920,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","1536x1536-width":1024,"1536x1536-height":1536,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","2048x2048-width":1280,"2048x2048-height":1920,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":8,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/IMG_6804-e1579771972426.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1280,"wpvr_mobile-height":1920}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"6","caption":"Left: Daniel Obasi, An Alien in Town, Ikayi, Lagos, Nigeria, 2018.

It\u2019s how we read the world. Those static images are supposed to be documentations of our reality. I think that for so long they\u2019ve been instruments of power. Until recently, we didn\u2019t really see black photographers [or] images in mainstream magazines. We\u2019ve had to create our own magazines: the Ebony\u2019s, the Jet\u2019s, The Black Photographers Annual, those magazines we\u2019ve had to create ourselves because we needed to \u2013 so we can be able to control our images, control our representation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To quote the epigraph that begins the essay in the book, \u201cControl over the image is central to power.\u201d The static image has been used to assert certain narratives to exclude certain people, to create stereotypes of certain people. This group of photographers have recognised the power of the photograph and are using that power to tell different stories, to widen the scope of what can be seen in a photograph and widen the scope of what black identity is. In this book, you really get a sense of the breadth and depth of blackness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"interview-question\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KD:\u00a0 Thinking about someone like Renell Medrano, who started by posting her images on Tumblr, how important is it that institutions like Aperture, Vogue or the art schools where some of these photographers have studied are recognising and publicising their work? How important is it that this happens instead of these artists creating their own platforms and disseminating their own images?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AS: The representation that I\u2019m after: Was anyone transformed? Were you moved to do something? That is the possibility of art. That is the power of art in general [to] inspire a better world. We are the institutions. Institutions are just people. I do appreciate what Aperture has done, and I do appreciate what Vogue is doing on their covers but also, the people need to change. I\u2019m 100% grateful for being able to do this book, but I also do know that each institution is also responsible for the situation we\u2019re in. It\u2019s one thing to pat Vogue on the back for doing the Tyler Mitchell cover and for later giving [British photographer Nadine Ijewere] a cover, making her the first black woman to shoot for the cover of Vogue [last December]. I think those are wonderful things and they should be applauded and they are historic, but they aren\u2019t enough, and they are definitely a little too late. How many other black people have shot the cover of Vogue in the last year? It\u2019s not enough to do the one-and-done. Throughout history, we\u2019ve seen the one-and-done. We\u2019ve seen that be a function of white supremacy. Because these institutions are people, it is incumbent on us to still make demands. Beyonce\u0301 and Tyler, that was amazing and we needed that. After that moment, we were able to say, \u201cOh wait, there are a whole lot of other people deserving of a cover. There\u2019s a whole lot of people that you overlooked.\u201d It was a watershed moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m black, I write about black artists, but it\u2019s not just about blackness. It is also about the representation of everybody else. You think about what happened in the civil rights era\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 I\u2019m not equating what I\u2019m doing, but I am drawing an analogy \u2013 it inspired the women\u2019s movement, it inspired the gay rights movement. It was a chain reaction and I think that\u2019s the best possible outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although this project is amazing, and I always feel like I am running a race, we\u2019re not moving fast enough. This book is an opportunity for us to reflect on the fact that this is great, but we have so much more work to do.<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":82758,"id":82758,"title":"NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL","filename":"NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","filesize":346469,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/article\/new-gen-black-photographers-beauty-power-representation-antwuan-sargent\/nbv_050_scruggs_chromat10nocircfinal\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"nbv_050_scruggs_chromat10nocircfinal","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":82752,"date":"2020-01-22 11:26:31","modified":"2020-01-23 09:44:11","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1500,"height":1200,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","thumbnail-width":120,"thumbnail-height":96,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","medium-width":1500,"medium-height":1200,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","medium_large-width":1500,"medium_large-height":1200,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","large-width":1500,"large-height":1200,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","1536x1536-width":1500,"1536x1536-height":1200,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","2048x2048-width":1500,"2048x2048-height":1200,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":15,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/NBV_050_SCRUGGS_Chromat10nocircFINAL-e1579789224319.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1500,"wpvr_mobile-height":1200}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"10","caption":"Dana Scruggs, Nyadhour, Elevated, Death Valley, California, 2019.

If black photographers shoot black people, just like white photographers shoot mostly white people, you never question whether the white photographer is going to be pigeon-holed? Why is that? Because of the status of the black body in our society. It\u2019s not so much of a pigeon-hole, it\u2019s \u201cYou\u2019re fucking racist\u201d. That\u2019s what it is. What should be articulated is that the magazines only see you in a certain way, and that\u2019s what needs to be challenged. I think Awol has a really great quote in the book where he says something like, \u201cI\u2019m trying to elevate blackness to the same universal standard as whiteness.\u201d So, when you look at a black body no matter who you are, you can identify with it.<\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 6\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>The thing is we have to keep problematising.

Why can\u2019t the black body also contain multitudes? That\u2019s what we need to be pushing back on. There\u2019s beauty, there\u2019s power, there\u2019s alienation in the black body.
