The Workhouse Celebrates Black History Month with an exhibit of works by several well-known African American artists, including Margo Humphrey, Michael B. Platt, Preston Sampson, Stanley Squirewell and Thermon Statom. Mr. Platt’s imagery centers on ritual and the transformation of the human spirit that occurs when it confronts imagined or actual events and circumstance. Preston Sampson sees his figurative portrayals as attempts "to emote, to touch, to move you to the center of it all, to enable you to feel certain changes, like fleeting moments of memory”, while Stanley Squirewell”s current work is an investigating of the political destruction of all things related to “Blackness.” Thermon Statom has been described as a "tornado" and "hurricane" of activity. He is known for his daring temporary installations as much as for the gallery pieces which are included in numerous museums all over the world. The exhibit runs February 3 – 27 with an opening reception to meet the artists Sunday February 7 from 2 – 4pm.
