About
Congo, painted in 1928, was an art deco style painting and depicts people dancing in a circle along to the Congo dance. The painting is evocative of the Harlem Renaissance because it prompts the viewers to look at the unity of African Americans through dance, body, and art. In the center of the painting, a woman stands in the middle of the circle and looks up, and a ray of light projects from her eyes. This emphasizes that eyes are not simply for seeing but they can also project. Another source of light emits from the center of the circle which emphasizes the importance of unity and community.
