The Dream is the Truth showcases a unique survey of artists whose practices fall within and across the categories of Vernacular Art, which broadly includes self-taught and Visionary Art, all drawn from Ogden Museum Collection. The exhibition features paintings, drawings and bricolage sculptures created within a grassroots Southern tradition of artmaking beyond academic or conventional art institutions. These artists deeply engage recurring themes of spirituality, memory, sense of place and community, often transforming found or repurposed materials through strikingly original expression and a strong sense of artistic purpose.

Tom McNease is a true enigma of Southern Art. Known as an eccentric recluse, McNease avoided the social trappings of the art world choosing instead to live an isolated existence among the swamps, bayous and rivers of Southeast Louisiana. The full depth and importance of McNease’s art practice was not known until after his death in 2014. This exhibition shines a light on this misunderstood and underappreciated artist whose contribution and innovative use of photography and painting has been overlooked due in part by his refusal to participate in the commercial art gallery and museum system.
