Challenging the Definition of Folk Art at Upstairs Artspace
Join us for a most intriquing walk and talk tour of all the fascinating pieces in the Folk Art exhibit, "Looking Back, Walking Forward - Evolution of Southern Folk Art". In this discussion, Ted Oliver, curator, challenges the definition of folk art. It promises to be a lively and exhilarating exchange.
The exhibit runs through April 10, 2010, and includes over 200 works by historically famous and youthfully inventive southern folk artists, including many in national and international museum collections.The event is free to the public. Don't miss it!

Edgy Exhibits. Provocative programs. Wow! Workshops.
The Upstairs Artspace is a non profit contemporary art gallery in downtown Tryon, North Carolina. We exhibit two- and three-dimensional art and craft by leading artists of the Southeast and, particularly, the Carolinas. We have an incomparable reputation for art that is sometimes experimental, often avant garde and always collectible. Our artists are usually established in their careers, but we also welcome the emerging artist whose work is impressive for being fresh, innovative and challenging.
Hours: Tues through Sat 11 am to 5 pm
