Using alumni artwork, Alabama State University opened up people's eyes to the importance of the Civil Rights.
The ASU Center for the Study of Civil Rights and African American Culture put out it's newest exhibit Sunday, "A tribute to ASU Art Legends." The exhibit featured the work of two former ASU art students.
Visitors were given insight into the work straight from the artists, one artists says there was no better muse for his art than history.
"I will say that my work is mostly narrative," said Dr. William Colvin, "It tells the story that gives the life of particular persons and historic events."
"It's a great honor for me to be selected," said John W. Feagin. "There were so many artists in the community and around the nation that she could of selected, but it's great honor for Colvin and myself to be here."
The exhibit is open to the public and will be on display until September 30th.
