The African American Heritage Museum at the Dr. Martin Luther King Community Center, 661 Jackson Road in Newtonville will present art from the estates of Fredric Toone Bacon and Lawrence Faust through September 30th. Among the items will be several limited edition prints of nine woodcuts by Fredric Bacon.
His bold black and white prints are striking examples of African American art. Lawrence Faust curated his own Art Park and Sculpture Gardens in the Adirondacks for many years. He was a self-taught artist passionate about creating wood, metal, and found art sculpture in a style he called expressionist. He worked on whimsical and spiritual art pieces until his death in 2014. Many pieces will be offered for sale.
The Life and Times of Prince (1958-2016) features magazine covers, album covers, and Prince’s CD & VHS music will be on display through the end of September. Prince was a unique genius and innovator in his sound, voice and colorful outfits. He graced many magazine covers during his three decade musical career.
