Paul Robeson and the UAW

6′ x 11,’ acrylic on canvas

This mural by Kathleen Farrell is located in the United Auto Workers of America local union hall in Dearborn, Michigan. In this mural Farrell uses photographs, including one of Paul Robeson, to develop a composite of images, text and graphic elements that tell a story followed by an abstract, vivid underpainting.
