PURVIS YOUNG: Contemporary Urban Painter On February 4, we celebrate the birthday of the late Purvis Young. Raised in the Overtown neighborhood of Miami, he was first introduced to art as a young man teaching himself incredible techniques by studying various artists from the shelves of the Miami public libraries. Influenced by American history and spiritual folklore; his visual vocabulary was vast. He often focused on utilizing discarded materials he collected for his paintin...gs because recycling is good for the environment he said. Young, inspired by the South Side Chicago’s Wall of Respect, started painting various murals and forms of civic art of his own in protest of war, poverty and racial indifference. Featured above is the Freedom Fence originally located outside of the House of Blues Orlando, that has since been carefully disassembled into smaller pieces of art now located inside of House of Blues Houston. Other notable Young pieces in our collection include: Tigrett and Young, Truck, Watching Over, Come Together, and more. #HappyBirthday #PurvisYoung #blackhistorymonth To learn more about Purvis Young: purvisyoung.com Photo Credit: Image 1: Larry T.

ARCHIE BYRON: Root Sculpture and Functional Art Today, we celebrate American sculpture, painter, U.S. Navy veteran, small business owner and city councilman, Archie Byron, born February 2, 1928 in Atlanta’s downtown Buttermilk Bottom neighborhood. Byron was a man of many talents who owned multiple small businesses, including the first African-American owned private investigator firm in the United States, a bait and tackle shop, a security guard training school, and a gun rep...air shop to name a few. By 1981, Byron had begun to involve himself in the political affairs of his neighborhood and decided to run for Atlanta City Council, ultimately winning a seat and serving as a member for eight years. Byron’s inspiration to begin creating folk art came from an uprooted piece of wood that reminded him of a gun that he encountered while working as a nighttime security guard on a construction site. He took it home, shaped and sanded it, and proudly hung it on the wall. He quickly became enraptured with roots scouring various lakeshores, riverbeds, and the woods near his home for interesting wood formations to create functional pieces of art. One day in the shop, Byron discovered piles of sawdust that he repurposed and used for various paintings and life-size statues that often reflected his interest in social and racial issues, as well as his pride in his cultural heritage. Our collection is lucky enough to include many pieces from Byron, including: Anatomy, Lakeside, Puzzles, Tall Boy, and several more. INTERESTING FACT: Archie Byron was a childhood playmate of Martin Luther King Jr., but never marched with him during the civil rights era, stating that he would not do so unless he could carry his shotgun.

Celebrating #BlackHistoryMonth at House of Blues House of Blues is home to the largest permanently displayed collection of folk art, often called Southern Vernacular art, and what we like to call Visual Blues. This collection includes more than 150 self-taught predominantly African-American artists who with their art have played an integral role in helping us curate our venue spaces for over twenty years with pieces that advocate for human expression, racial equality and spiritual harmony. Throughout Black History Month, we’ll be featuring some of these notable artists who have created artifacts, like the ones featured above, celebrating Unity in Diversity. We are looking forward to introducing you to these talented creators; stay tuned for these highlights throughout February!
