Little Gallery Opens with Freeman and Jones Exhibits
The Little Gallery begins its season Sunday in the public library with a two artist show by Don Freeman of New York City and Harry Donald Jones of Des Moines. Francis White, new gallery director, contrasts Freeman’s New York Scene lithographs with Jones’s Mexico cycle to highlight two art schools. Freeman’s work, praised for crowd depiction and Hogarthian satire, has earned museum exposure. Jones, 28, blends decorative design with modern Mexican studies and has eleven Iowa awards. The gallery is open daily 2:30 to 5:30, aided by Cedar Rapids Art Association.
