Group Exhibition
Overhead, Underfoot
Ms BarbersNicholas Arehart Páll Haukur Pauline Shaw The artists in this exhibition create their own flags by mining their personal, political, and cultural histories. They're not quite like any other flag you’ve seen. Rather than cloth these flags are made of paper and felt and aluminum. They do not billow in the wind, but these are our flags. One guy says “Why, I’m free to sleep Where it says Keep Off The Grass!” And a cop says, “Sure! An’ me, I’m free To kick your lousy ass!” The sun shoots down on many a head, Some bushy and some bald But away up high the stars and stripes Waves on above us all -Woodie Guthrie
