Panoply: 26 Painted Lives

Bradbury Art Museum 201 Olympic Dr, Jonesboro, AR 72401

Panoply: 26 Painted Lives brings together two bodies of work from portrait artist Ray Allen Parker. The LIT series forms a sort of visual biography of the artist, who holds two degrees in English literature from the University of Arkansas. These portraits of literary figures trace Parker’s journey through the novels and poetry that shaped his thoughts and feelings about major themes explored in literature.
The Biographies series is comprised of forensically close, introspective portraits of family and friends. These works, stripped of all background artifice, reveal a maximum of psychological expressiveness with minimal facial expression.  Admission is free!
