SUMMARY:Martha Graham: The Mother of Psychological Dance
DESCRIPTION:This centennial exhibition traces the arc of Martha Graham’s groundbreaking career\, centering her visionary approach to dance as psychological expression. Graham transformed the dancing body into a vessel for inner life\, using movement to externalize emotion\, memory\, and the unconscious. By putting the raw psychology of the individual and social collective on stage\, she redefined what movement could express—not just in dance\, but across all art forms. The show displays rarely seen archival materials from the Jerome Robbins Dance Division’s Martha Graham archive\, set pieces by Isamu Noguchi\, and costumes by Graham\, as well as offer insight into the genius and legacy of Graham and the dance company. \nBorn in 1894\, Martha Graham was an American modern dancer and choreographer. Initially proclaimed as a great dancer\, she started to fundamentally change the way dance looked and was perceived when she founded her Martha Graham Dance Company in 1926. \nToday\, she is often placed alongside artistic household names who significantly impacted their medium. She is recognized as “the mother of modern dance” in dance history not only from her choreographic masterworks\, but also her invention of a new and codified dance language. Her signature Graham technique\, now used by dance companies all over the world\, was the first of its kind that stood in contrast to classical ballet. \nCurated by choreographer\, writer\, and educator Jack Ferver\, the exhibition is part of the Martha Graham Dance Company’s centennial celebration. \nImage: Martha Graham and Company in “Act of Judgement\,” from “American Provincials\,” 1934. \nPhoto © Paul Hansen\, by permission of Vicki Quade.

SUMMARY:Exhibition/ Folk Nation: Crafting Patriotism in the United States
DESCRIPTION:Mounted during the celebration of the United States semi quincentennial\, 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. \nImage: Untitled.
