Energy: Charles McGee at Eighty-Five Location: Ford Gallery and University Gallery Description: Energy: Charles McGee at Eighty-Five
Ford Gallery and University Gallery
Reception, University Gallery, Mon., Nov. 9, 4-7 p.m.
Gallery talk by McGee at 5 p.m.
Winner of the 2008 Kresge Foundation Detroit Eminent Artist Award, Charles McGee is one of the most important Michigan artists of the last century. His work pulses with the energy of life, and he sees the world as a wholly interconnected global thicket in which all species are equal and interdependent. His art is, thus, intensely relevant today as it artistically addresses our environmental crisis and calls for respect among all ethnic, racial, and religious groups. Through high quality and representative works of art, this sixty-year retrospective will document all phases of his work. McGee has received numerous honors and awards during his lengthy career, including the 1978 Governor’s Michigan Artist Award and the1989 Michigan Artist of the Year Award. Since 1971, he has completed numerous, large-scale public commissions in Michigan and Ohio. His work is in hundreds of museums, galleries, art centers, and private collections in Michigan and throughout the U.S.
