Bearden’s Visual Language, Reinterpreted

Romare Bearden brought fragments of image, memory, place, music, and history together in dynamic compositions. His work explored Harlem, the American South, city life, family, ritual, migration, and jazz—creating layered narratives that remain central to American art.

In this licensed collection, Vontélle references visual elements associated with Bearden’s practice, including strong color relationships, geometric pattern, and collage-like layering.


The Collection

Vontélle’s current Romare Bearden collection includes four styles:

The Block II 1972

Carolina Shout 1974

City Midtown Canyon

Black Manhattan

The collection is designed, presented, sold, and fulfilled independently by Vontélle Eyewear.
