| Synopsis: |
This catalogue of a 2007 exhibition explores the intrinsic link between the visual and the verbal in the art of Billy Roper and the notion of his paintings as a form of visual storytelling. Roper is a contemporary North Georgia painter and sculptor whose art is held in collections around the United States. Roper works in a variety of formats and styles in two and three-dimensional media based on traditions found in Appalachian vernacular and mainstream art forms. His subject matter ranges from minutiae of his childhood memories to contemplations on his cultural heritage and from an accounting of the day's events to reflections on the nature and meaning of life. |
