Intuit kicks off its 2010 season with The Treasure of Ulysses Davis. A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”
