Seeing is to painting what listening is to politics. Survival as an artist demands both. A painter's painter whose color work rivals that of his mentor Hans Hofmann, James Gahagan (1927-1999) painted all night to push the limits of vision. His life and thought reveal a correlation between art and activism through the creative process itself.
