jeffcrom Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 NIce! And well-deserved. Mr. Mitchell has been on fire lately. Quote
paul secor Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 Deserved. Mr. Mitchell has kept the faith over a lot of years. Quote
JSngry Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 I see that also named were Lynda Berry & Suzy Ibarra, two other, each in their own way, great iconoclasts. Embarrassed(?) to admit that none of the other awardees are on my radar, proof(?) yet again that so much is happening everywhere and so little crosses over outside its own world. Or maybe I just don't know shit, that's quite and entirely possible. Any, Roscoe has been, is now, and always will be a hero of the highest order. Quote
Dharmajazz Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 It’s nice to see Roscoe receive the recognition he so deserves. It’s no surprise to the initiates, anyone in the know, that he is a keeper of the flame- the real deal. Between the AEC, his collaborations, and his own solo career, Roscoe has cultivated a substantial (and I’d add an important) body of work- and his creative legacy continues. Roscoe is still one of the most exciting active players to this listener. So glad that good things are happening for this man. Quote
jlhoots Posted January 23, 2019 Report Posted January 23, 2019 A good friend of mine, santero Arthur Lopez, won that award also. He's an excellent sculptor. Quote
