<p>"Mer. Eddy Lives: The Art &amp; Life of Eddy Mumma, is the first book to thoughtfully study the life and work of self-taught Florida artist, Eddy Mumma (1908-1986), whose intense, color-saturated portraits reveal the artist's search for identity through the power of his imagination. Painting for Mumma served a therapeutic as well as creative need to counter psychological pain, depression, and feelings of isolation exacerbated by personal loss and physical disability. The color reproductions, many of works not previously known to the public, contribute significantly to the carefully researched biography and art historical essay. A must read."- Lee Kogan Former Director of the Folk Art Institute and Curator of Special Projects American Folk Art Museum, New York</p>
