Exhibition Celebrating Four African American
Artists at John Natsoulas Gallery
This exhibition offers a unique
chance to see paintings and
some ceramics by artists
from diverse backgrounds.
Larry Clark grew up in
Louisiana but moved to San
Francisco in 1987 where he
drew and painted at the
Hospitality House's Community
Arts Program.
Against all odds, including
poverty, disease, and
institutionalized violence, he
never stopped making art.
His paintings explore
imagery of Black legacy, with
a distinctive style rooted in
the intricacies of his
drawings.
Clarence Major is a critically
acclaimed author, poet, and painter
whose subjects range from
communities gathering in bustling
streets to pensive, powerful women,
donning myriads of patterns and
colors.
His compelling characters
each possess an immense
amount of personality and
flair
Ira Watkins is a Bay Area resident
and self-taught artist whose
compositions often portray the
African American diaspora in the
Bay Area during World War II, and
whose scenes commemorate Black
compassion.
Each artist utilizes a unique
aesthetic and their own
experiences of art to
emphasize narration through
distinctive figures.
Kevin Snipes is a brilliant
ceramist and painter who
has exhibited nationally and
internationally.
In a variety of media, he crafts
narratives intended to confront
discrimination through the
adoption of a sophisticated,
illustrative approach.
