Americana is commonly associated with nostalgia, optimism, and a rose-tinted view of the past. You may recall images of baseball, apple pie, or the local soda fountain. But what does Americana look like today--and what does it mean to you?
More than 200 artists responded to this question, submitting over 900 photographs to Juror Darren Ching, Director and Co-owner of KlompChing gallery in New York.
"Though the exhibit is laced with a number of photographs which could be interpreted as a cynical view of America—my intention was to present a country that is diverse, resilient and distinct," he said. Darren ultimately selected 26 artists for the exhibition, which will be on view at CPAC September 22 - November 4.
Opening Reception: Friday, Sept. 29, 6-9 pm (free)
