A Sherwood Gallery at El Taller Opening – TOM X: A Retrospective
Last night, El Taller hosted their first gallery at the new Sherwood Design Engineers office location in the mission. The gallery opening featured TOM X: A Retrospective and included live jazz band and good company.
“Tom X (b.1944-2001) was a painter from New Orleans who lived a nomadic and sporadic life in near anonymity. In 1989, he delivered the damning testimony that incarcerated his brother for the murder of their mother. In order to evade his vengeful kin, Tom adopted the last name “X,” allowing him to disappear—undetected.”
