Exhibition Label Copy the most recent text made for a exhibition didactic label Fred Jones was influenced by the strong community ties he experienced in the 1950s as an assistant director at Chicago’s South Side Community Center, which cultivated the life force of Chicago’s African-American arts scene. Having studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, he embraced the American surrealist movement as well as images and motifs with roots in African art. While the exact meaning of this painting is unclear, many clues clearly point to the ritual of courtship between this man and woman. Among these are the date of July 7 on the torn calendar page, the pink rose and church in the background, and the playing cards revealing the ace and queen of hearts.
