Hale Woodruff
Hale Aspacio Woodruff (August 26, 1900 - September 6, 1980) was an African-American artist known for his murals, paintings, and prints. He sought to express his sense of heritage in abstract painting. His most highly esteemed work, the three-panel ''Amistad Mutiny'' murals (1938-1942), is held at Talladega College, about 50 miles east of Birmingham, Alabama.
==Early life and education==
Born in Cairo, Illinois in 1900, Hale Aspacio Woodruff grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, where he attended local segregated schools. He studied at the Herron School of Art and Design in Indianapolis and at the Chicago Institute of Art.
Woodruff won an award from the Harmon Foundation in 1926,〔African-American Artists, 1929-1945: Prints, Drawings, and Paintings in The Metropolitan Museum of Art〕 which enabled him to spend four "crucial years studying in Paris from 1927-31."〔(Roberta Smith, "In Electric Moments, History Transfigured - Hale Woodruff’s Talladega Murals, in ‘Rising Up,’ at N.Y.U." ), ''New York Times'', 13 August 2013〕 He enrolled at the Academie Scandinave and the Acadamie Moderne. He learned in the city's museums as well, while getting to know other ex-patriots, including Henry Ossawa Tanner, the leading African-American artist. He got to know the French avante-garde and began collecting African art, which was inspiring Picasso and other modernists.〔http://www.high.org/Art/Exhibitions/Rising-Up-Hale-Woodruff.aspx〕
