ALPHA OMEGA ARTS By Gregory & Ernest Disney-Britton Vernieda (Mom) Britton stands next to portrait of Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson at the entry of Robinson's exhibition, "Raggin' On: The Art of Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson's House and Journals" in Columbus, Ohio Yesterday we were " Raggin' On" at the Columbus Museum of Art with The Art of Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson's House and Journals . The exhibition feels like a religious revival via color and texture, just like the life of this MacArthur "Genius" grantee . Mom Britton is fascinated with the larger than life hands -- "They are sacred poses," she told us. Mom acquired her first piece in 1981, and in 2004, became Robinson's "RagGonNon" docent at Cincinnati's Freedom Center. A day with mom's favorite artist makes Aminah  our collector's tip of the week.
