“An artist has a conversation in threes: first with himself, next with his audience and finally with history.”
Howard T. Cash
“A handsome series of color images of Africa by the American photographer, Howard T. Cash.”
Holland Cotter, Art In Review, The New York Times
“Howard T. Cash has been documenting the African Diaspora for over thirty years, including four years in the 1980’s when he lived and worked in Lagos as a freelance photographer for several Nigerian newspapers. His prolific career over these years have produced an impressive body of work that help deconstruct and reconstruct the image of the objectified native that has historically dominated colonial and racist perceptions of Africa. Using symbolic and expressive imagery that communicate personal and social dignity, Howard’s photographs are documents and metaphors that allow us to examine and celebrate life in contemporary urban and rural Africa.”
Skoto Gallery, New York City
Howard T. Cash is a remarkably gifted, fine art and documentary photographer. His artistic images have been published both nationally and internationally by The Associated Press and purchased by over five hundred collectors worldwide. Mr. Cash's photographs are increasing in value as he continues to exhibit his work in galleries and museums across America and Europe. Collectors purchase his work because they can relate to the personal stories that lie within the photographs. Long time collector, Marcia Fingal purchased, "A Moment's Pause" because " the indelible image of the young girl in Nigeria reminded me of my own upbringing as a child in Guyana, South America". His work is a resource, a bridge concerned with construction and deconstruction of the African Diaspora, laid out in dimensions of color and shades of gray.
