"Herman Wallace", fine art by Daphne Arthur

Fine Art - Daphne Arthur is donating this new piece "Herman Wallace" based on the story of Herman Wallace, one of the "Angola 3", a man who spent more than 3 decades in solitary confinement and then was released after his case was overturned and he was proven innocent, only to die only a few weeks later.

Specs of the piece: Herman Wallace, 2016. Found framed and smoke on acetate, 10 3/16"x 20 1/8""

"Daphne Arthur’s smoke on paper, employ an interesting technique. Her drawings remind one of tableaux vivants, or stage-like pieces. She is telling a complex story, yet shrouding the narrative in a complicated set of visual techniques. Her work is a travelogue of her imagination and precise story telling. In viewing Arthur’s work, we are not here, we are there."  by Louis Zoellar Bickett, Lexington, KY
