FABULOUS FOLK ART IN EVANSTON—Part 1

 

Stuart Novy was a renowned ad man and creative director in Chicago, creating some of the most iconic TV commercials for Wrigley (“Pick A Pack of Juicy Fruit”) and we all remember Ron Popiel’s Chop-O-Matic. When Novy wasn't dreaming up ad campaigns, he was busy creating an amazing array of folk art sculpture and paintings in his home, as well seeking out works from other folk artists and amassing a wonderful collection of folk art and vintage toys.
