HONKY TONK Signed Lithograph, Collage Portrait, Black Musician, Blues Guitar
1996

About the Item

HONKY TONK is an original hand drawn, limited edition lithograph by the African American artist James Denmark printed using traditional hand lithography techniques on archival Somerset paper, 100% acid free. HONKY TONK by James Denmark is a colorful collage portrait of a seated black man wearing blue denim jeans and a brown slouchy cap playing his blues guitar. In HONKY TONK, Denmark's portrayal of a young black musician in bright shades of red orange, red, dark blue, light yellows, cream, tan, browns, and black creates a feeling of good time honky-tonk music! James Denmark, born in Winter Haven, Florida in 1936 is one of the few masters of collage. He utilizes an exacting process to cut and assemble brightly hand colored papers, fabric and objects into familiar figures and images. Denmark’s grandmother, a wire sculptor and quilt artist, exposed him to color and form at an early age. He was also influenced by his grandfather, a bricklayer noted for his unique custom design molds. Denmark attended Florida Agriculture and Mechanical University (FAMU) in Tallahassee, FL where he studied under the artist and acclaimed African-American art historian, Dr. Samella Lewis, receiving a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. After graduating from FAMU, Denmark moved to Brooklyn, NY and began teaching art in the public school system. Denmark earned his Master of Fine Arts Degree at the prestigious Pratt Institute of Fine Arts in New York. He has had over 60 one-man exhibitions and has participated in numerous group shows. His artworks are a part of well recognized private and corporate collections in United States, as well as in Mexico, South Africa, Europe, Japan and Africa, including New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Denmark has received numerous awards and commendations including the 39th Annual Printing Industry Award given by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and The Living Legends Award presented by the National Urban League.
