David DriskellWake Up Everybody

Minnesota Street Project

Oct 2 – Dec 19, 2026 Dogpatch

Paintings, collage, works on paper and prints made by David Driskell between 1960 and the early 2000s.

The show samples Driskell’s wide-ranging practice, from figuration and abstraction to Christian devotional art, African craft traditions, landscapes and jazz musicians. Prints include linocuts, woodcuts and serigraphs, shown with paintings, collage and assemblage.

The works draw on his Southern upbringing, his travels in Africa and his ties to Maine. The title comes from the 1975 Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes song, honoring Driskell as a teacher and mentor to generations of African American artists.
