Bert Green Fine Art is pleased to present our third solo show by Chicago native artist Jesse Howard.

Jesse Howard is a Chicago native who has observed the rhythms and nuances of African American cultural life in Chicago over many decades. His artworks are meant not as portraits but rather as figurative typologies. meant to document and celebrate the rich variety of individual and collective expressions, showing the good, the bad, the beautiful, and the ugly. At the core of this work is a deeply felt, powerful pronouncement of the human spirit.

All gallery events are free and open to the public. Additional information found at the gallery website at https://bgfa.us. Please forward to any interested parties.
