The influence of African culture was everywhere apparent in Cooper’s work, which drew heavily on his many trips to West Africa
and fused the culture of
the African continent with
images and personalities
from 20th - and 21st-century Buffalo. In a statement, Cooper called himself “an Afrocentric artist whose
world view is rooted in an African frame of reference,” going on to call his work
“a fusion of two cultures:
my American experience
and my African heritage.”
