Each year, we celebrate the
12 Days of Christmas with gift-giving from December 25 (Christmas) and ending on January 6 (
Three Kings Day), and this year it includes a lithograph purchased to mark the 2019
birth of our grandson "Tru." The image is of one of
Nick Cave's Soundsuits "meant to empower the person wearing them through concealing their race and gender." As a 2015
visiting artist at the
Tamarind Institute, he created a lithograph now included
in a suite with 17 other artists. Tru's birth makes
Nick Cave's "Untitled" our art of
Christmas week.
