About the Piece:
18th & Vine is the home of Kansas City Jazz with a history that goes back more than 100 years. People tend to focus on the music when they think of 18th & Vine, but dance is just as important a part of the story. The combination of dance and music are an integral part of our city’s heritage. The two dancers in this piece embody the joy of moving with the innovative music that wafts through the streets of the district.
About the Artist:
After a forty-year hiatus from art, Jean McGuire rediscovered her passion through portrait studies, drawn to the challenge of capturing the unique stories behind each person. Her portraits seek to illuminate the emotions and histories of people from times past. The proximity of the ZhouB to the rich musical history of the 18th & Vine jazz district has inspired me to produce a series of paintings focused on the jazz that this area is famous for.
