"Here, Look at Mine!" - John N. Robinson and Larry Francis Lebby Art Show
November 14, 1982 – February 28, 1983
Although from different generations, geographic, and socioeconomic backgrounds, John N. Robinson and Larry Francis Lebby share what The Washington Post calls “a spiritual kinship.” At an early age, both artists realized the importance of art in their lives; both use their families as subjects; and, both work in a realist style. Painting is Mr. Robinson’s primary medium, while Mr. Lebby’s is stone lithography; however, both experiment boldly in other forms of artistic expression.
