Discovering the art of Eddie Lee Kendrick was, as Ruth Kaplan recalls, like walking into another world.In 1977, Kaplan, an administrator at an elementary school in Little Rock, Arkansas, walked into the school janitor's supply closet and found its walls hung with bright, lively paintings and drawings of Jesus, of angels, and of people in prayer and ecstasy, all created on corrugated cardboard.It was a world lit by the spirituallyinfused art of Eddie Lee Kendrick, an African American selftaught artist whose work is now gathered in A Spiritual Journey: The Art of Eddie Lee Kendrick, containing sixtyfive full color examples of Kendrick's artistry.Community was central to Kendrick, especially the community of church, home, and work. Alice Rae Yelen says, Kendrick's paintingshis personal communications in praise of the Lordwere influenced most strongly, according to the artist, by scriptures, singing, music, praying, and dreams."Also provided is an insightful description of Kendrick's technique, a brief biography of his life, and an informed discussion of how Kendrick's art relates to the world of selftaught artists in the South.Eddie Lee Kendrick, born in Stephens, Arkansas, in 1928, worked in sawmills, in elementary schools, in a Holiday Inn, and in a meatpacking plant. Like many selftaught artists, he did not rely on his art for his living. He was an ardent gospel singer and church choir member. He died of cancer in 1992.
