During the last decade of his life, self-taught artist and South Side resident Joseph Yoakum (1890–1972) began drawing almost full time. He produced several thousand works in this short period, mostly of highly stylized landscapes. This compelling exhibition features works from the Smart Museum’s permanent collection, and is paired with a related presentation of works by the Chicago Imagists, many of whom were Yoakum’s friends and profoundly inspired by his art.
