Now You See Me: Portraiture has long been a cornerstone of American art, evolving from grand oil paintings of colonial aristocracy to intimate photographic studies of everyday life. It has functioned as a mirror of social values-asserting power, legacy, identity, and aspiration. As the cultural landscape of the United States has shifted, so too has the definition of who gets seen, how they are seen, and by whom. The artists included - Vitus Shell, Aron Belka, and Gina Phillips - work in varied mediums and have unique processes, but their work has a common thread; their subjects defy the expected. Rather than portraying traditional icons of wealth or status, the artists depict friends, family, and strangers.
Open: Tuesday-Friday 10:00AM-5:00PM Saturday 10:00AM-4:00PM

Ephemera are items meant to be used temporarily and then usually thrown away, such as cards, advertisements, ticket stubs, etc. As we catalog the Noel Collection, we often find these items tucked away in the books for safe keeping – and then forgotten. Now they can be seen again and the pleasure they once gave experienced anew. We have a selection of them on display along with the books in which they were found. Come and experience our delighted discovery of these remnants of the past.
