Art Chicago

The Black Man for Art Chicago

I drew this silhouette as a logo for Art Chicago, a major annual exposition of fine art held in Chicago every spring. It became an iconic image, recognized internationally. It didn't even occur to me until more that 10 years later that it was drawn for a client whose name is Tom Blackman. Get it. Black Man for Blackman! Sometimes these things are VERY subliminal!
