Baldwin Hill Art & Framing is proud to have works by the artist and illustrator Richard M. Powers in our gallery (Boston-area) for the month of June. Reception is Friday June 1 from 5-9PM. Directions here.
Those of you who collect science fiction books would recognize his work in the book covers of the 50s and 60s. Richard Powers pioneered a surrealistic style that became the standard for SF covers in those decades. What you may not know is that he was very prolific and eclectic throughout his long career. He produced paintings and illustrations in quite a variety of styles both for commissions and for his own artistic enjoyment. This exhibit will feature a number of works from the Powers estate. The artist's daughter, Kathy Powers Sherry, will be in attendance at the reception to share memories of life with her father.
Feel free to share this invitation with anyone who might be interested!
