A Look Back At The Paintings Of The Late Art Historian David C. Driskell.
ABOUT
David C. Driskell, who died last week at 88, was a man of many hats: curator, scholar, teacher, collector, among them. But Driskell first got his start as an artist. At Howard University in Washington, D.C., he started out studying painting, but soon changed his major to art history, at the urging of his early mentor James A. Porter.
