BETWEEN BLACK & WHITE WORLDS - THE STORY OF BILL TRAYLOR
Family mix media workshop with artist Tereza Buskova



Born into slavery in Benton, Alabama, Traylor practised his art only during a three-year period, after the age of eighty-five. His initial mediums were watercolor and pencil, later expanded to include charcoal and poster paint; his supports were pieces of discarded cardboard. Traylor's subject matter was the street life of downtown Montgomery, observed from his makeshift sidewalk studio (a crate and a table), where he produced between 1,200 and 1,500 whimsical drawings.

This workshop will be delivered via Zoom.
