New Jersey artist Willie Cole discusses his early artistic influences and the inspiration behind his sculpture and prints in this 2006 interview held during a major retrospective at the Montclair Art Museum. Willie Coles works track his distinctive Newark, New Jersey heritage, movingly melding the social, political, and cultural perspectives of urban African-American experience.

  • Wille Cole's work is so beautiful. He is an example of how African Americans can look at their culture and transform it. We don't need to follow the traditional white art world of America, in fact, we will save culture in this materialistic world of America.
