Charles Mingus IIIUpcoming one-man Show at the Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, OhioI am working hard trying to create and codify lots of feelings thinking and images... Usually I have a year or two to create the art and a curator picks from that body of work. This situation is unique and energizing I am happy to say just 4 months ago I sold 2 prints, so I can afford the up front cost of doing a full scale one man show 12" x 55", a big chunk of space... with three months to go, takes 2 months to print and mount so I am crazy happy busy... Drawing my inspiration from artist such as William Hogarth, Francisco Goya, Picasso, René Magritte. I am at a good point in the personal myth process. Currently enjoying juxtaposing the neo-iconic anthropomorphic blue-eyed elbow macaroni on even my "most serious work"... Gotta go for now, be well ... Charles ![]() |
