This thesis painting for a MFA degree at the University of Cincinnati (School of Fine Arts) was a self portrait of the artist Scattergood-Moore aka Gene Arthur Scattergood. Scattergood meant this painting as a tribute to the liberal/intellectual east coast he had left to attend graduate school in conserative Cincinnati. The painting was also meant to be a homage to Max Beckman's "Self-Portrait in Tuxedo" 1927, oil on canvas, in the collection of the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Harvard University Art Museum, Cambridge, Massachusetts. . . Scattergood, like Beckmann in St. Louis, felt alienated in the racially-troubled city of Cincinnati and the anti-intellectual atmosphere of the University of Cincinnati of the mid-1960s . . .

My family and I spent a number of summers at White Point, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in a small cabin built by our neighbor, Frank Fritzgerald, a local fisherman in his 80's. Frank, who was illiterate, brought education to the small fishing village and out-lived three wives. He was a wise and honorable man - the closest I came to having a grandfather. |
