Amerika: idea; fantasy; dream; myth; image

About

Amerika is an exhibition exploring the different ways in which America is viewed and thought of by non-Americans, and the ways in which these ideas are variously represented by artists in their work. Many of the artworks on display show incomplete ideas which conjure a sense of place and evoke the mythological magic of the country which has inspired so many artists, filmmakers, writers and poets to try to capture its essence over the years. Amerika is organised by Alasdair Duncan, with Jack Lovell, and Mike Merkenschlager.
