People's Biennial 2010: A Guide to America's Most Amazing Artists

People's Biennial is a celebration of the unknown, the peculiar and the disregarded. It was conceived through the curators' desire to explore the overlooked and the marginalized, and to present artistic positions usually dismissed by the mainstream art world. For the exhibition, five American art institutions present works by artists in each of the institutions' local communities, selected by the exhibition co-curators, Harrell Fletcher and Jens Hoffmann. This catalogue chronicles Fletcher and Hoffmann's research and visits to each of the five cities: Portland, Oregon; Scottsdale, Arizona; Rapid City, South Dakota; Winston-Salem, North Carolina; and Haverford, Pennsylvania.
