Author Talk With Joe Barry Carroll
What: “My View from Seven Feet” is NBA All-Star Joe Barry Carroll's musing on the mythical qualities some want to assign to a person standing seven feet tall. Carroll expresses his "view" in the form of figurative and abstract paintings that are celebratory, reflective and hopeful. Each is paired with a short narrative that further conveys the artist's ruminations on relationships, legacy, sexuality, success, sports, culture, responsibility and more.
