Join John Daniel Tilford, Curator of Collections and co-curator of this exhibit, to dive into the world of OUMA's most recent exhibit!At first glance, the lives and works of Catherine Wiley and Beauford Delaney may appear incongruent. A closer examination of each reveals two artistic journeys with shockingly similar goals, aspirations, and challenges. The dichotomy of the lives and brilliance of Catherine Wiley and Beauford Delaney is a fascinating riddle to the art historian. The two shared geographical origins, and an early mentor was in Lloyd Branson. Their respective journeys toward success showed rather a number of parallels, but above all, it was their brilliant artistic journeys challenged by mental illness that bonded the two, with both dying in mental institutions.
Admission is FREE for everyone. See you there!
