Description: |
|
Elemental: The Power of Illuminated Love is the
product of two individuals' combined creative and spiritual visions. It
features some 64 paintings by celebrated artist Luther E. Vann with more
than approximately 50 accompanying poems and two essays by award-winning
author Aberjhani. The art, spanning the early 1970's to 2007, expresses
Vann's perception of spiritual principles active in the personal and
public lives of people in
New York
and Savannah. Introductory essays comment on Vann's life and his art.
The poems complement the art with themes that explore issues like war,
homelessness, the nature of love, and expanded spiritual consciousness. |

About the Author: |
|
As a
developing artist, Vann’s life in New York City during the mid-twentieth
century exposed him to the works of Harlem Renaissance artists such as
Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Ernest Crichlow, and Augusta Fells
Savage. In that very concrete sense, his life and work represent a
direct link to the Harlem Renaissance. A first-place prize winner in
the 1996 Georgia Arts Festival, his work has hung in group and solo
exhibitions throughout the United States and around the world, including
at the Beach Institute in Savannah, the Cinque Gallery in New York City,
the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Brooklyn Museum of Arts and the
Telfair Museum. Vann currently resides in Savannah, GA. |
