Genius is childhood recalled at will. Charles Baudelaire When you were a child you made art, probably lots of it. You, and everyone around you, called that "playing." Art is part of a child's normal response to almost any aspect of life. A small child asks an art-teacher what he does at work. "I teach people to draw" the teacher says, and the child responds "You mean they forget?" Within the bounds of an imaginary dollhouse, this exhibition showcases art that uses the tropes of playtime - storybooks, toys, dolls, games, dress-up, imaginary friends, and secret spaces - to explore the serious and playful nature of art-making. The works compel the viewer to recall the joys of make-believe and to appreciate the unique interpretation of "play" that each artist brings to the dollhouse.
