Columbus Museum of Art, Legacy of Local Artists 2/08

Columbus Museum of Art

Ron was one of several local artists that had their portraits painted by artist Talle Bamazi recently. The completed paintings make up the "Legacy of Local Artists" display at the Columbus Museum of Art from 2/1/08 - 2/28/08.

The following article at the Fostoria Review Times Online gives a  description of this special installation:

"...The Columbus Museum of Art celebrates the city's rich heritage of African-American art with a special installation of works by Columbus artist Talle Bamazi on view Feb. 1-28. Bamazi created an ongoing series of portraits of his colleagues with objects symbolic of their African Lineage...."

This is a wonderful project, and brings many of the areas finest from the art community to the attention of art lovers, and patrons of the museum.
