Leslie Garland Bolling (1898 - 1955)
Bolling, a self-taught African American sculptor from Richmond, Virginia, created small-scale subjects in wood that chronicle with empathy the Black working class in the segregated South of the 1930s and 40s. A store porter by day and an artist by night, he drew thematic inspiration from the daily work and leisure of local residents, including his friends and neighbors. His keen powers of narrative observation and sophisticated carving skills brought him attention and patronage from leading Harlem Renaissance figures and funders, including Carl Van Vechten and the Harmon Foundation, dedicated to promoting the work of African American artists through touring exhibitions.
