Hello everyone, I would like to invite you all to a very special art reception this Sunday to celebrate the work of my late uncle Mr. Imagination. He is the pride of our family and has many works in the Smithsonian (see the link below) and you may recognize his art from various House of Blues locations. Hope to see you there! Please feel free to forward to anyone who might be interested. – Aimee The Roots of the Spirit Notre Dame de Namur University 1500 Ralston Avenue, Belmont, CA 94002 Reception: Sunday, Sept 21st, 2-5pm The Reception will feature a presentation by the artists and the exhibition curator Martha Henry about their work and their art environments. The Wiegand Gallery, part of the Notre Dame de Namur University, is proud to announce the West Coast debut of four of the country’s most notable Outsider artists in The Roots of the Spirit: Lonnie Holley, Mr. Imagination, Charlie Lucas and Kevin Sampson. Curated by Martha Henry and Robert Poplack, Director of the Wiegand Gallery, the exhibition sees the foursome’s work reunited for the first time since a controversial 2011 Venice Biennale showing that occurred despite having their invitation to represent the American Folk Art Museum within the framework of the international art world suddenly cancelled. The Roots of the Spirit will include works created while they were in Venice, as well as throughout their careers.
