Jeffrey Scott Holland, neo-expressionist artist 
from Madison County, Kentucky (and currently 
living in Louisville) brings his acclaimed "Dark 
Observatory" lecture/demonstration to Greenbo 
Lake State Park during Memorial Day weekend. 

"Dark Observatory" simply consists of Holland 
working on paintings in front of a live audience, and 
giving a running commentary all the while about 
his views on art, Kentucky, and whatever else pops 
into his head. This will be Holland's most marathon 
session over, as he intends to spend as much of 
his waking hours as possible painting for the public 
(and chatting with them) for the duration of the four 
days. 

"Icons of the Wilderness", a new exhibition of recent 
paintings by Holland, will simultaneously be held in the 
lobby of the nearby Jesse Stuart Lodge. Although 
described by JSH as "A basic iconographic account 
of Kentucky's history, known and unknown, for the past 
zillion years", one can always expect the unexpected 
when looking at things through his eyes. 

Jeffrey Scott Holland's primitive "Southern Gothic" style 
of art has hung in galleries and museums in New York, 
Los Angeles, London and Paris in the last twenty years. 
In January, he performed "Dark Observatory" in the 
prestigious Actors Theatre in Louisville.
