Santa Fe, New Mexico - Folk Art All Mixed Together This is at the serious International Museum of Folk Art, but the largest exhibit is a donation from years of collecting by Alexander and Susan Girard. Alexander Girard designed the exhibition, and this is what makes it all so funky. Rather than being stuffy with facts and an orderly display, he has chosen to assemble the pieces as he considered artistically pleasing. Art from different countries and eras is all mixed together. Some of it isn't even art. I think I spotted some Sunshine Family dolls in one of the exhibits (little girls who grew up in the 1970s will recognize them). [Karen, 05/24/2008]
