MOBILE, AL.- The Mobile Museum of Art opens the exhibit Howard Cook: Drawings of Alabama through April 15. Drawn from the collection of the Georgia Museum of Art, this exhibition presents approximately 45 drawings during his visit to Alabama in 1934. Many of these works have never been exhibited outside Georgia.
Considered one of America's best-known print makers including a series of woodcuts of the Grand Canyon in 1927, Howard Cook was also a painter, illustrator and lecturer who served frequently as guest professor in numerous universities and art schools.
He was born in Springfield, Massachusetts and took his formal art training at the Art Students League in New York, beginning 1919 and then traveled extensively in Europe, North Africa, Turkey, the Orient, and Central America.
