Double Exhibit of Frida Kahlo Photos and Luther E Vann Art
The one-man show of Vann's work, titled "Elemental," will be the first by the artist at the Jepson Center and will run from April 16 to August 17, 2008. The Kahlo exhibit is titled "Through the Lens of Nickolas Muray," and will run from April 16 to June 15, 2008.
"Kahlo's imagination and the freedom she allowed herself to express it is what I admire most about her work," said Vann. "I also appreciate the energy of surrealism that you find in some of her images. The fact that my art is hanging at the same time as Muray's photographs of her make me feel like I'm in good company and I hope she feels the same way (smiles)."
Many of the paintings scheduled to hang in Vann's "Elemental" exhibit are currently slated for publication in a book of the same name. In addition to his art, the title includes corresponding poetry by Aberjhani, author of "The Bridge of Silver Wings" and co-author of "Encyclopedia of the Harlem Renaissance" (Facts On File). He maintains a profile page on Creative Thinkers International and an online art store at http://stores.lulu.com/luthervannartforlife
Muray's photographs of Kahlo were taken prior to her fame as an artist and the wife of Diego Rivera, also celebrated for his art and born in Mexico.
