Another
Time's Voice Remembers My Passion's Humanity
Artist:
Calvin Jones, Restored by the Public Art Group
Commissioned
by: Chicago Youth Centers/Elliott Donnelley Youth Center
Location:
The Donnelley Youth Center Art Garden, 3947 South Michigan Avenue
Medium:
Mural
Commentary:
This is one of two tremendous murals featured in the Donnelley
Youth Center Art Garden, along with several sculptures, mosaics
and a fountain. This early mural celebrates the families of the
South Side and their links to an African past. The later work
"Feed Your Child The Truth" has taken much inspiration
from it, without being as dramatic or moving.
The Donnelley Art Garden is unquestionably the greatest accumulation
of outdoor art on the south side of Chicago.
