That place is the McKissick Museum on The Horseshoe. "Work Song: Visions of African American Labor in South Carolina" is one of the many displays that is currently on exhibit in die museum. Museum chief curator Catherine Home said "Work Song" was chosen to come to USC because ** of its uniaue wav of showing ^ ? -j 9 e people at work.

The show features South Carolina artists Anna Heyward Taylor, Elizabeth White, William Johnson, Alfred Hutty, Thomas Hart Benton, Elizabeth O'Neal Verner and James Cooper. Home said the works try to document the dependence of South Carolina on its black labor force. "It is estimated that during the Depression a majority of those directly involved in agricultural : work were black," she said. ; Home said the work songs that sustained laborers in the fields t during the Depression were later t transformed into songs that helped sustain the black community through the civil rights I movement. Museum-goers can listen to these work songs during exhibit. "Work Song" was first assembled at the Greenville Museum with some advice from USC art professor Boyd Saunders. "The show reflects different attitudes of the subjects and in|| volvement. Farm work can be viewed from several points of view, from forced drudgery to onward and upward ideas like Itnose or Russian works tnat glorify the workers in the fields," Saunders said. Saunders said James Cooper, one of the artists whose work is on display, brought an interesting * combination to the subject. "Cooper grew up on the land but was able to see it through the eyes of an artist," Saunders said. He was scholarly enough to bring into his work the philosophy and literary points of view that prevailed at the time."
