The works displayed in this exhibition span almost six decades of the artist’s remarkable career and include paintings, collages, mixed media, lithographs, totemic sculpture, textiles, and three-dimensional handmade paper. To make his art, Johnson has drawn deeply on the shared humanity of world cultures, the music of Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, the paintings of Alma Thomas, the poetry of Dudley Randall, and the prose of Richard Wright. The artist is an avid lover of music, and it gives him inspiration and direction throughout his creative process.
