Folk art is one of the American South's most significant areas of
creative achievement, and this comprehensive yet accessible
reference details that achievement from the sixteenth century
through the present. This volume of The New Encyclopedia of
Southern Culture explores the many forms of aesthetic expression
that have characterised southern folk art, including the work of
self-taught artists, as well as the South's complex relationship to
national patterns of folk art collecting. Fifty-two thematic essays
examine subjects ranging from colonial portraiture, Moravian
material culture, and southern folk pottery to the South's rich
quilt-making traditions, memory painting, and African American
vernacular art, and 211 topical essays include profiles of major
folk and self-taught artists in the region.
