Here's what our customers are saying... |
"In terms of the art history
of our country, I would say in comparing Tolliver's work to Picasso - Mose's art is of equal value - you can hang beside a
Picasso and you have the same kind of creativity and deep personal vision."
Robert Bishop, Director of the
American Folk Art Museum
"Haardt leaves no doubt that Mose Tolliver has made a lasting contribution to the
cultural memory of the South"
Jason Berry, Best Selling Author
"Locomotives behind artists
are as necessary as the art itself, and thanks to Anton Haardt, many of our regional artists have been able to live and even
flourish from their craft.î
Nall - Artist, Writer, Director of Nall Foundation
"Bill and
Hillary Clinton gave Ted and I a Mose Tolliver painting as a wedding present. I smile every time I pass it no matter what
else my day has brought me. That's art."
Mary Steenburgen,
Academy Award Winning Actress
"I
must thank Anton Haardt for sharing Mose's story with us. It's an excellent story and excellent journal of an amazing artist
who will see fame in his own lifetime after a disaster that caused him to pick up a paintbrush and share his inner thoughts
with us."
Tyrone V. Banks, Author of "Under the Melting Pot"
"Mose T, A to Z is
the first book dedicated to Tolliver's work... Haardt's true heart comes through in this book... a worthy investment for fans
of Mose, aficionado's of folk art and curious readers everywhere".
Clarence V. Reynolds, "Black Issues"
January - February 2005
"Haardt gives a brief, yet highly informative, definition on each of Tolliver's whimsical
monikers for his paintings. This book should hold a special appeal for those who have come to know and love the old man on
Sayre Street, and may capture interest of art enthusiasts worldwide."
