History and Memory in the Artwork of Daniel Minter, a Talk and Freedom Trail Walk
Using archetypes, symbols, icons, and folklore steeped in the context of African American and African Diaspora culture, Daniel Minter's paintings, block prints, sculpture, and other media are a study of the many ways in which memory is embedded into our past, present and future.
In addition to creating the markers for the Freedom Trail, Minter is the illustrator of several children's books including "Ellen's Broom," which won the 2013 Coretta Scott King Award for illustration. He created the 2004 and 2011 Kwanzaa stamps for the U.S. Postal Service.
