SUMMARY:Exhibition / Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Mounted during the celebration of the United States semiquincentennial\, Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States draws from the American Folk Art Museum’s rich collections to explore links between vernacular art and the construction of an American sense of self. Introducing visitors to the concept of “folk” as a category developed in conjunction with the art and antiques markets\, this exhibition positions works as multilayered in their meanings\, imbued with cultural significance by not only their creators\, but also their collectors and subsequent owners. Americans have long preserved objects as a way of telling stories about themselves. Beginning after the Revolutionary War and gathering momentum in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries\, people turned to early American things to construct a national history and sense of collective identity—an impulse often driven by lingering insecurity about the young nation’s perceived cultural provinciality compared to Europe. \nThis concentrated exhibition illuminates how makers both historical and contemporary have employed a kaleidoscopic variety of media to express love of country while also revealing the complexities and contradictions embedded in such expressions.

SUMMARY:Exhibition / Self-Made: A Century of Inventing Artists
DESCRIPTION:Self-Made: A Century of Inventing Artists takes a critical look at the historical definition of the “self-taught artist” in the United States from the early twentieth century to today. The exhibition examines how artists without academic training have depicted\, conceptualized\, and identified themselves on their own terms. In doing so\, it aims at challenging reductive\, long-standing narratives that have cast these artmakers as amateurs or isolated geniuses working out of time\, without lineage\, influence\, or artistic networks. \nThe sixty artists featured here largely worked outside conventional art-school\, gallery\, museum\, and peer-exchange systems. Their practices are rooted in diverse sites of learning\, from professional expertise to community-based traditions. Drawn primarily from the American Folk Art Museum’s collection\, this selection of artworks brings together outstanding examples of paintings\, sculptures\, photographs\, videos\, and artists’ notebooks by key national and international figures—many of them recent or rarely seen acquisitions.
