This week\u2019s theme at<\/span> the FIVE Spot is<\/span> Music <\/b>as we present five works of art connected by images celebrating jazz, blues, and the culture of music. These vivid offerings capture the essence of our universal language with abstract imagery, vibrant colors, jazzy figures, featured instruments, and bluesy relationships.<\/span> Each piece, abstract or figurative, conveys a story of a musical moment be it a culturally-based depiction of music\u2019s impact on our lives and relations, or the poignant presentation of a sole instrument.<\/span><\/p>\n

Together, these five works of art remind us of the powerful and essential role music fulfills as the soundtrack of our lives. The rendering artists include<\/span> Joseph Holston, Najjar Abdul-Musawwir, Lisa Cain, Yesrod, and Gordon Parks.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
