No matter how far Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson’s art took her–a MacArthur “Genius” grant, artist residency in Santiago, Chile–she remained a local artist. That’s where she lived and created during the intervening years of a brilliant career that now takes center stage at her hometown art museum, the Columbus Museum of Art, during the exhibition, “Raggin’ On: The Art of Aminah Robinson’s House and Journals” through October 3. This material–and great volumes more–was bequeathed by the artist to the Columbus Museum of Art upon her death.
