Here you will find the story of the South—the old as well as the new, as told through its art, music and education programs. Exhibitions: The Art of Tennessee: From the Collection of Gertrude and Ben Caldwell Throughout his years in the country music, Marty Stuart collected art, memorabilia and photography, as well as taking photographs of musicians he met and promoted. Chronicling the evolution of Stuart’s interest in and contributions to this great American roots music, this exhibition features Hank Williams Sr.’s suits and boots, Minnie Pearl’s hat, Woody Guthrie’s fiddle, promotional posters, and Stuart’s collection of Nudie suits, as well as his photographs of Porter Wagoner, Merle Haggard, George Jones, Johnny Cash, Woody Guthrie, Loretta Lynn, Ray Charles, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chet Atkins, among others. Through Oct. 31. As a young photographer, Tom Rankin set about documenting the distinct culture and place of the Mississippi Delta. This exhibition focuses on black-and-white, large format photographs revisiting the same places over several decades, recording the interaction of time and place. Jenny K. Hager, a Jacksonville, Fla.-based artist, melds the worlds of sculpture and technology for her installation of Flight Lab. Hager says, “… in an installation piece you’re actually ‘in’ the work, as a viewer. It seems to be the most experimental genre of art, because it can be multi-sensory…” Presented by the Ogden Museum’s Kohlmeyer Circle. This show will focus on a public-awareness program the YA/YA artists have adopted in support of the Circle Food Store in New Orleans and the efforts to re-open it post-Hurricane Katrina. Artists recorded individual stories on Flip cameras of residents who lives were impacted by Circle Food Store in some way. These stories, in turn, became inspiration of a series of works on view at the Museum. A commemoration of the photography coverage of storm, flood and aftermath of Hurricane Katrina by national photojournalists and others who witnessed it. Events LIVE MUSIC@OGDEN A F T E R H O U R S |
