Common Ground/uncommon Vision
The Milwaukee Art Museum's collection of American folk art reflects the art worlds' increasing interest in the genre. A major part of the collection comes from Michael and Julie Hall's extensive collection, acquired by the museum in the early 1990s. Parts of the collection went on nation-wide tour during 1993-1995, with this volume clearly explaining the importance of the genre, the vision of the collectors, and the beauty of the pieces of art, all produced by self-taught artists.
