Artful Impact Prepared by Kelly Little The Kinsey Collection

From the Beginning Bernard, the former Xerox vice president who became chief operating officer and co-chair of RLA (Rebuild Los Angeles) in Los Angeles in 1992, and his wife Shirley, have been collecting for more than 35 years. They started collecting as a way to savor and share their travels, but their art soon became a repository for African American intellectual, historic and artistic works.

Over 100 Items, Over 30 Years As the Kinseys evolved as collectors, they began to identify and collect the work of artists who make up and define African American art, such as Lane, Tina Allen, Ernie Barnes, Ed Dwight and Richard Mayhew. Moreover, they collect documents that illuminate historical moments. The collection is the winner of the 2009 Golden Achievement Award, the Sunshine Medallion Award and the 2008 National Medal for Museum and Library Services.

A Tallahassee Connection The Kinseys met as college students at the predominantly black Florida A & M in According to Kinsey, a member of the Kinsey clan has been enrolled at FAMU for the past 50 years. See the exhibit through March 2010 at Brogan Museum

The Collection includes an original transcript of the Emancipation Proclamation.

Artists, Artifacts in the Collection Artists like Romare Bearden, Elizabeth Catlett, Sam Gilliam, William H. Johnson, Jacob Lawrence, and Henry O. Tanner, more recent African American art, such as Lane, Tina Allen, Ernie Barnes, Ed Dwight and Richard Mayhew; as well as historical documents and artifacts of Benjamin Banneker, Frederick Douglass, Harriet Ann Jacobs, Alain Locke, Phillis Wheatley, and Malcolm X make up the ninety plus objects that reveal important aspects of American history and culture.

Chester Williams, an art professor and sculptor at FAMU, believes that this is an opportunity for students to broaden their horizons and learn about the history and legacy of African-Americans. The collection, which has previously been on display in Los Angeles, Cincinnati, Ohio, Chicago and West Palm Beach will be on display at the Brogan Museum through March 21, 2010.
