SUMMARY:The Lost World: The Art of Minnie Evans
DESCRIPTION:This program is now FULL. To be added to our WAITLIST\, please email acklandRSVP@unc.edu. \n  \nAcclaimed American artist Minnie Evans (1892–1987) once described her drawings\, filled with human\, botanical\, and animal forms\, as coming from “the lost world\,” referring to “the nations destroyed before the Flood.” After her grandmother died in 1934 and the dreams and visions she had been experiencing since childhood became stronger\, Evans went on to produce a large and celebrated body of work and in 1975 became one of the first Black artists to have a solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art.  \nKatherine Jentleson\, PhD\, is Senior Curator of American Art and the Merrie and Dan Boone Curator of Folk and Self-Taught Art at the High Museum of Art. In this talk\, Jentleson will pay tribute to her mentor\, Dr. Bernard L. Herman—a tireless advocate for the legacies of self-taught artists like Evans—and share insights into her current exhibition\, “The Lost World: The Art of Minnie Evans\,” opening at the High Museum of Art\, Atlanta\, on November 14. \nRegister for your free ticket below as space is limited. \n  \nSponsored by the UNC Department of American Studies through the generosity of the Maness Fund.
