- Lot Description
Gary Harrell
Back Door Man
2016
Block print and pointillism, linoleum relief cut
12 x 17 in.
Fair market value: $500Information provided by the Artist: I started making art in 1985, eight years into a prison sentence that I would serve until 2020—forty-five years in all. I had never considered turning to visual art until I saw other men in prison making it. I started out doing woodwork and molding glass and plastic. As I began liking and improving my craft—expanding into new media like block prints and advanced techniques like pointillism—the meaning of art changed for me. It transformed from a desire and a hobby into a need and a vocation. I wondered how different my circumstances might have been had I discovered this passion earlier in my life. My art comes from a wellspring of visions that I do not fully control or understand. Sometimes I am inspired by pictures, in the news or in a book, or recent or historical events. I’m currently teaching Art at Solano State Prison. Gary Harrell's work is represented in the Crocker's permanent collection.
