In reaction to a perceived lack of coverage of black art, Davis became an advocate for black art and artists. His best-known work is the ''Eye on '84'' mural he painted to commemorate the 1984 Summer Olympics. ==Personal life== Davis grew up near Tuskegee University where his father was a professor of psychology. Davis's family moved from Tuskegee, Alabama to Los Angeles, California in 1955 where he was exposed to Asian art. Davis became a practitioner of Zen meditation although he did not convert to Buddhism. Davis, then an art student at Pepperdine, disagreed with the overwhelmingly white focus of his coursework and sought to understand the black art scene in America. He and his brother Dale, also an artist, traveled across the country to meet other black artists including the "Spiral Group" in Harlem led by Romare Bearden and Hale Woodruff.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alonzo Davis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
