More evidence artists are often ahead of the rest of us—Elizabeth Catlett interviewed around 2010: "I’m not optimistic about America right now. I think it’s moving very fast to fascism. It scared me when I was in the US. Because people aren’t thinking, they’re waving flags." youtu.be/jZ8x5EO5nz8?...

Painting of bird's eye view of two children making chalk drawings on a sidewalk, including of a nval boat, flag, man walking, and two boxers fighting
To kick off Black History Month, one of my absolutely favorite works by artist Jacob Lawrence: Sidewalk Drawings, 1943, which underscores the complexity of Lawrence's singular vision in how it links the joy & exuberance of children drawing with difficult subject matter like war & violence

B&W photo of an article from a 1930s newspaper, with photo of Frida Kahlo painting, and headline: "Wife of the Master Mural Painter Gleefully Dabbles in Works of Art"
A reminder that when Frida Kahlo accompanied Diego Rivera to Detroit where he was to paint a major mural series, a local journalist described her as the muralist's wife who "dabbles" in art. Frida shot back: "Of course, he does pretty well for a little boy, but it is I who am the big artist."
