Breadfrog Making a Vegetable Stew of Himself

Description
Breadfrog Making a Vegetable Stew of Himself reflects the absolute absurdity and humor of the Funk movement. Gilhooly was probably the most involved of Robert Arneson’s students at Davis in the movement which rejected the elitism of art. Since the 1970s, the subject of frogs consumed his work. He developed extensive “frog worlds” which document the history, ethnology, religion, and myths of this frog civilization. His works both parody and demystify human civilization.
Included in the 2017 exhibition “The Good Making of Good Things: Craft Horizons 1941-1979” at the The Center for Craft, Creativity & Design, Ashville, NC.. .
