Remarkable works by Ohio artists capturing Ohio’s distinctive expression of Regionalism rooted in the state’s more diverse blend of agriculture, industry, and cultures. The more than 75 works presented demonstrate a fertile “crossroads” of style, subjects and social commentary that belies Regionalism’s more simplified grassroots connotation.
Presented with the generous support of Ohio Humanities.
