(South Carolina, born 1934)
from the series "Blues on the Beach", signed lower right "Leo Twiggs", batik, 19 x 41 in., framed
Note:Inspired by Twiggs early life when he would go to Myrtle Beach where the beaches were segregated. The title pays tribute to "The House of Blues" where white visitors could listen to jazz. Leo Twiggs is the 2018 winner of the prestigious Society 1858 Prize honoring contemporary southern painting. Twiggs said the legacy of slavery, and the conflict it has generated, has made the South a fascinating place for artists.“The South is a place where great stories originate,” stories that resonate far and wide, he said. “I strive for the universal. I don’t want to be pigeonholed. But the universal comes from dealing with specifics. That’s why Faulkner still resonates. That’s why Shakespeare still resonates.”
