Dean Mitchell: A Place, A Mental Space, 2015 Friends of the Beach Museum of Art Gift Print Artist
2015-03-03 to 2015-06-21
During a visit to the Southwest, a friend took Dean Mitchell on a drive through the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community in metropolitan Phoenix. The artist was immediately struck by the visual similarities between the structures he encountered on the reservation and the buildings in his hometown of Quincy, Florida. "Dean Mitchell: A Place, A Mental Space" includes watercolor and oil paintings of scenes from the Pima-Maricopa Indian Community and the artist’s hometown. The exhibition will also feature the 2015 Friends of the Beach Museum of Art Gift Print, an etching by Mitchell. (Images of loaned objects may not be available.)
