'The Old, Weird America' considers a widespread resurgence of folk themes in recent art from the United States. By giving visual form to archetypal stories and characters from the time of European settlement through the 1960s, the artists featured in the exhibition both participate in and reflect upon folklore's fraught role in the quest for roots, values and authenticity. The exhibit features a wide range of media -- sculpture, drawing, photography and video.
