A gallery conversation with artist Jonathan Frost, a gallery owner and artist from Camden, Maine. Frost discusses the paintings he created (showing in Ladd Library through Feb. 22) in response to a tour of historic civil rights sites in the South. The images illustrate key episodes from the movement, including a voting rights march by black teachers and, depicted moment-by-moment in an 18-image series, the police killing of Jimmie Lee Jackson.
