Art of William Edmondson by William Edmondson,

A native of Nashville african animal art and the son of former slaves, William Edmondson (1872 - 1951) was the first African American artist to be featured in a solo show at New York's Museum of Modern Art (1937). For this exhibition MoMA director Alfred Barr remarked, "Usually the naive artist works in the easier medium of painting. Edmondson, however, has chosen to work in limestone, which he attacks with extraordinary courage african animal art and directness, to carve out simple, emphatic forms." Robert Bishop, the late director of the Museum of American Folk Art, declared Edmondson to be "one of the outstanding folk carvers-if not the outstanding one - of the twentieth century." Edmondson's first works were memorial gravestones. Later he created animal, human, african animal art and celestial figures. His carvings were inspired by his faith, community, african animal art and culture. He told the story of how God spoke to him. "I was out in the driveway with some old pieces of stone when I heard a voice telling me to pick up my tools african animal art and start to work on a tombstone. I looked up in the sky african animal art and right there in the noon daylight He hung a tombstone out for me to make." Showcasing Edmondson's sculpture african animal art and placing it in the mainstream of American art for the first time, this lavishly illustrated volume accompanies a traveling exhibition organized by the Cheekwood Museum of Art in Nashville. In new interpretations that challenge long - held views about Edmondson's artistic naivete, the essays emphasize his profound african animal art and intimate connection to his community african animal art and its traditions. Adding immeasurably to the understanding of Edmondson's art are photographs by Edward Weston, Louise Dahl-Wolfe, african animal art and Consuelo Kanaga that show the artist in his community african animal art and hisworkplace.
