First Coast Connect: Paul F. Yount Exhibition at The Alexander Brest Gallery @WJCTJax

Uploaded August 2026 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Large-scale paintings that explore even larger themes form the backbone of a new exhibition at The Alexander Brest Gallery on the campus of Jacksonville University. Paul F. Yount’s dark, expressionist oil paintings depict scenes of immense violence and historic atrocities while evoking a promise of transcendence or even serenity. We talk to the artist about the pieces that comprise the SILENCE.silent exhibition and what it means to make art that is both political and deeply personal.

Guest: Paul F. Yount, visual artist behind the SILENCE.silent exhibition at The Alexander Brest Gallery
