The Main Gallery of MOAH will showcase the traveling exhibition Hearsay guest curated by Wendy Sherman. Hearsay takes a close look at artist’s interpretations of legends that serve as modern mythology. Through the act of combining forms of imagery and the written word, the legends survive through contemporary storytelling. Each of the 38 artists in this exhibition have chosen an urban legend they have a personal connection with, creating an environment for the public to better understand the tales by considering them in the context of each artist’s interpretation. Tales included range from alligators in the sewer, Sasquatch, and the devil phantom of Lake Elizabeth. Artists include: Joel Biel, Llyn Foulkes, Jeff Gillette, Laurie Lipton, Victoria Reynolds, Robert Williams, and more.
