 FOLK EXHIBIT\n\nCunning Folk considers magical practice, practitioners, and 
 their persecution in early modern European artwork and material culture 
 (c.1500–1750). The term “cunning folk” typically describes wise 
 people who knew traditional spells and remedies believed to cure and 
 protect. The works on paper, painting, and personal items on view in this 
 intimate, single gallery exhibition more broadly explore the historical 
 concept of “cunning” in connection to many forms of secret magical 
 rites and knowledge, from folk charms to occult natural philosophy to 
 diabolic witchcraft. Early modern artists also helped construct the idea of 
 magical figures as a threat to the prevailing social order–particularly 
 through the rise of print culture–and here, a selection of American 
 contemporary artworks reconjure these histories.\n\nAll public programs at 
 the Cantor Arts Center are always free! Space for this program is limited; 
 advance registration is recommended. \n\nImage: Dominique Viviant Denon
