At Taubman Museum of Art

"Thoughts About Life and Death" is a retrospective exhibition of my artwork.
Several pieces have never been exhibited before, including
An Inaccurate Map
of Roanoke, a painting created specifically for this show, available as a 16 x
20" color poster!
The Taubman Museum of Art is a cutting-edge exhibition space housed in a
futuristic edifice of glass and steel. I am genuinely honored to be exhibited
at the Taubman; my first museum show!

 FULL-COLOR
ART BOOK!
My new book The Arts and Innards of Russell
U. Richards! is both an art book and memoir tracing my struggles with a
devastating chronic illness, and how art helped me survive it. 124 pages,
with beautiful full-color reproductions and photographs throughout. Contains adult subject matter.
Available
here.This is the book I always wanted to create. The product of over two
years of work, I have spared no effort or expense to bring together the best
of my artwork in one place. And it's a good read, too, if I do say so myself!
