The Lost World: The Art of Minnie Evans, High Museum — “They are just as strange to me as they are to anybody else,” the late folk artist Minnie Evans responded when asked about the meaning of her paintings. The title of her show at the High is derived from vivid dreams she had as a child which eventually inspired her to draw and paint. Evans was considered a surrealistic visionary who created “psychedelic” artworks based on her unusual visions. In 1975, a major exhibition of her work opened at the Whitney Museum of American Art, followed by another show at St. John’s Museum, both in New York. The Whitney is set to host ‘The Lost World’ after its run at the High. — Kevin C. Madigan
