About “Blake in the Heartland” "Blake in the Heartland" is a celebration of responses to William Blake, who continues to inspire reactions to his work in art, television, ilm, and music. It will begin with an exhibit featuring creative responses to the work of Blake by regional artists Robert McFate (Ohio) and Emily Brandehoff (KY), as well as facsimile reproductions of Blake's works by Blake scholar and curator Dr. Michael Phillips, who has curated major Blake exhibits at the Ashmolean at Oxford, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Tate in London, and the Petite Palais in Paris. About William Blake William Blake (1757-1827) was an English poet, printmaker, and painter whose work engages such topics as the American Revolutionary War, the French Revolution, slavery, psychology, mythology, politics, and religion.
The exhibition is available for public viewing: March 19 through April 9, 2015. For more information contact Professor Lee Fearnside, at fearnsidel@tif in.edu.
