January 31, 2016 Joe Rice exhibit revisited

Joe Rice Exhibit
At the end of January, we staged an exhibit -- the first ever -- of my father's artwork. Paintings. Ceramics. Jewelry. Work gathered from the homes of many family members and displayed in one place. I now regret that there was no videographer to do the occasion justice. My husband did shoot some clips moving through the house, catching most of it, and I have cobbled the clips together. Even this meager effort took me several hours. I imagine it could be vastly improved with some additional editing. But for now, this is it. I'm going cross-eyed. 
A few key paintings didn't get the star billing they should have, so here are some additional photos:

    The Green Man
    Joe Rice remembered

    Rice was a little-known artist. By choice. 
    The Green Man is a self-portrait  from the 1960s. It's a pretty good likeness. Rice was an artist first, a father, teacher and whatever else, after that. He was also inventive, dogged, abidingly humble, and, in his own quiet way, an inspiration to those who knew him. ​

    Dorothy Rice writes things
    . Her first book, The Reluctant Artist: Joe Rice (1918-2011) is an art book/memoir about her father, Joe Rice, whose lifelong dedication to his art, with no interest in finding an audience, both inspires and mystifies. Visit her author website here.
