This exhibition will reveal, through a number of themes, some of the most curious and unusual objects used as currency throughout history. The exhibition of some seventy prints and drawings assembled by curator Dr. Peter Flagg from many American museums, will examine how the artist transformed these motifs into emblems of humanistic thought at the beginning of the sixteenth century. This is the only venue for Fate, Fortune, Nemesis which will be accompanied by an illustrated catalogue with an essay by the curator. Spain has a long and rich tradition of folk art that continues to play an important role in Spanish life and culture. With the expansion of the Spanish Empire in the 16th century and the subsequent colonization of the Americas, many Spanish folk art forms found expressions in the New World.
