This talk led by art historian and longtime Frye art lecturer Rebecca Albiani will shed light on the complex life of self-taught artist Bill Traylor, who was born into slavery in Alabama in 1854. Traylor died in poverty as an unknown artist, but his work (which was created using pencil on cardboard, poster paint, and other readily available materials) is now widely recognized for its honest perspective on everyday life in the Jim Crow South.
