Martin Luther King Jr

€22.46 – €521.25

This is a new collection created in collaboration with my daughter Suzanne who took my original artworks and brought them into the twenty first century.

In 2018 I was commissioned to paint Frederick Douglass as part of his 200th Anniversary which led to the reigniting of this series.

I first started the artworks of MLK, Angela Davis and Malcolm X in 1967. Unfortunately, they were part of a series which was canceled and not finished until now!

Description

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY

It was Bobby Kennedy’s eulogy for the slain martyr for Civil Rights, Martin Luther King, that always stayed with me and reaffirmed my determination to honour them both.

As a young man living in Ireland, far away from the centre of this epic struggle, it was Martin Luther King and his powerful, pacifist speeches that made its mark for life on me as we listened to them virtually every night on the TV news, while he and his marchers were battered and brutalized by white racist cops while offering only heroic passive resistance.

Slowly but surely I was becoming convinced that the pacifism of King and the entire American Civil Rights movement was the only path to real political freedom and change.
