Man of Visions by Howard Finster Original Signed Wood Cut Out 1988. A superb little gem f. Rom the personal collection of a gallery owner. The piece is a self portrait in an apple green leisure suit. A giant of the Outsider and Folk Art movements, Howard Finster. Is considered the Grandfather of contemporary American Folk Art. Howard Finster’s album cover for the Talking Heads, his wild appearance on The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson landed him on the front page of T. He Wall Street Journal, a documentary by the Smithsonian, and many other accolades are the signature of this artist, and his fascinating life story. His work is collected by museums and galleries around the world. This is coming from my personal collection. Finster was a Baptist minister and eccentric outsider/folk artist that. Stated God charged him to illustrate his religious visions in. A warm feeling came over me to paint sacred art. He was a larger-than-life personality with a devoted following long before he appeared on the Johnny Carson Show or in an R. For his speaking engagements, he wore a powder-blue suit and had his banjo at the ready. He sang with a melodious twang, and he could yodel with force, but it was his compelling. Sermons in paint” that made him a folk art phenomenon. Born in Valley Head, Alabama, Finster was one of thirteen children. At sixteen he preached his first sermon. S, he hosted a radio program and wrote a column for the local newspaper. He led tent revivals and. To support his wife, Pauline, and their five children, he was also a bricklayer, carpenter, plumber, and took up the. Hard times business” of bicycle and lawn mower repair. He had a great sense of humor, which he used in the service of the Word from the bible. When Im in big revivals, about the first thing I do a lot of times is to get the people tickled a little bit, get their mind off everything, then I get the message over to. S, he began constructing Paradise Garden, a two-acre spiritual environment at his home in Pennville, Georgia. His plan was to display all the inventions of mankind. Embedded in the gardens cement walls, walkways, and playhouses were Bible verses, accumulated bicycle parts. Tubes, mirror glass, Coca-Cola bottles, junk jewelry, plastic toys, a mound of cement snakes, and his sons tonsils’. Put up in alcohol. Theyd come here and just blow up on it, so Id just take the crowbar and start pulling it off”. He made thousands of works of art that often combine written words with his own vocabulary of visual images. At home Finster would kick back on his studio couch with a chaw of tobacco in his cheek and carry on a stream-of-consciousness monologue for hours. Like a perpetual-motion machine, he seemed to gain energy from his own oration.

This is a wonderful OX original painting / wood cut out by the legendary Southern Folk Art icon Revered Howard Finster. Rock n Roll preacher, designer and painter of Talking Heads Albums, prolific artist, cultural oddity and Southern legend Rev. Finster’s works are highly collectible and a vibrant part of American Folk Art history. Finster himself from his sculptural backyard dubbed “Paradise Garden” in the mid 1990s part of a larger Finster collection. This OX has his signature “lost soul” faces all over his body with names of people the Rev. Finster is praying for including Henry Ford, Hitler and himself! The Ox painting is mounted on a flat board which has a treatise on God and the creation of animals. On the back is his signature bird logo, and the lord’s prayer as well as the number of the piece and date. The principal colors are cream, olive green, black and rose colored spots on the ox /faces of the souls. This remarkable piece of folk art history has a lot of stories in it, as well as being a very cool looking art object. I love it a lot as it is part of a larger Finster collection of mine with prints, signed books and three other wood panels. I literally had to flip a coin to decide which piece I could bear to part with. Me sufres 11 inches high and 15 inches across. He is remembered for his album covers for the Talking Heads, anappearance on The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson, tons of press, a book about his work, collections of paintings, his presence in many private collections, a documentary by the Smithsonian, and curation in museums and galleries around the world. Finster was a Baptist minister and eccentric outsider/folk artist that stated God charged him to illustrate his religious visions in 1976 when while painting some bicycles for local kids, one of his signature “lost soul” faces appeared on his finger covered in white paint and”A warm feeling came over me to paint sacred art. His”sermons in paint” made him a folk art phenomenon. He also played banjo, sang, appeared in an REM video and never seemed to sleep. You can see videos of him in his garden, his interview on Carson that made him a pop culture star and a documentary on him all on youtube. Thanks for looking I hope it goes to a nice home.
