“Seven years ago the Museum of Art – DeLand presented one of John Mellencamp’s first museum shows, and it remains one of the most well-attended in our 70-plus-year history,” Pardee says. Inspired by the 1939 Billie Holiday song that compares lynched slaves to the fruit of trees, Mellencamp’s canvas depicts George Floyd standing next to a skeletal man who has Pat asked John if he needed on artist to travel along to Chicago but he said I wouldnt like the road life to much Pa says 'if he ever changes his mind I would love to collaborate with him with my art, thank you again John Mellencamp' Pat is very pleased with the painting, he feels like it captures Johns energy and has a very nice vibe to it. One piece Pattie Pardee, executive director at The Museum of Art – DeLand, hopes to exhibit in the upcoming show is Mellencamp’s 2020 oil painting Strange Fruit II.
Mellencamp, who is of German descent, is drawn to a style consistent with early 20th-century German expressionism, which he taps into to manifest his artistic interpretation of both beauty and pain. Taking a tone similar to that of his pensive new album are his oil paintings, for which he enlists a moody color palette and unsmiling subjects who portray sunken eyes and haunting stares. Mellencamp, 70, lives in Bloomington, Indiana, and is currently working on the release of his 25th album, for which he debuted a sample of the song “I Always Lie to Strangers,” earlier this year. Museum goers can expect to see artifacts including the suit worn in promotional photos for Mellencamp’s 2003 album Trouble No More, his 1976 Fender Telecaster Custom guitar played onstage extensively and the studio tracking chart for “Jack and Diane” from 1981, as well as an oil painting by Mellencamp himself, Backbone (2022), reworked from a 1993 self-portrait.John Mellencamp: The Stardust Sisters, 2013, Mixed Media on Canvas
