Title: The Thin Black Line, subtitled: An exhibition selected by Lubaina Himid, Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA)

Each page is devoted to an individual artist, divided in half (lengthways) to allow for a statement by the artist, an image and CV.

From the foreword on the inside cover: “All eleven artists in this exhibition are concerned with the politics and realities of being Black Women. We will debate upon how and why we differ in our creative expression of these realities. Our methods vary individually from satire to storytelling, from timely vengeance to careful analysis, from calls to arms to the smashing of stereotypes. We are claiming what is ours and making ourselves visible. We are eleven of the hundreds of creative Black Women in Britain. We are here to stay.”

Several years later, the catalogue was reprinted, in a different format, by Urban Fox Press.
