Three-dimensional art in the Library Administration Lobby

Charles "Charlie" Moses Brown (1904-1987) was born in Mayport, FL and moved with his family at the age of 2 to the Mandarin area of Jacksonville where he lived for the next 81 years.   Brown was a potter for many of those years, creating hand-built pots, ornaments, wall hangings, and jewelry patterned with clay stamps, dried seed pods, rocks, and other materials.  In the early 1960’s Brown embraced the Raku method of firing.  Brown left his job as a bookkeeper and office manager to pursue pottery full-time in 1962.  His work has been featured in several retrospectives including one at the then Jacksonville Art Museum in 1969 and at the University of Florida in 1978.

Memphis Wood (1902-1989) was a well-known Jacksonville artist for over sixty years, working in many media – drawing, painting, pottery, ceramics, sculptural fiber art, and jewelry design. As a studio art teacher in local schools for 33 years, she taught many budding artists, and was a major influence on art education in Jacksonville. She was also one of the founders of the Jacksonville Art Museum (now the Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville). In honor of her artistic achievements, the Museum sponsors an annual award, the Memphis Wood Excellence in Teaching Award, for outstanding contributions to the arts in education. The Library is fortunate to have three of her sculptural fiber art pieces, and several other works by Wood.
