Outside New York: The State of Ohio
April 26 – June 26 1980
Organized by Allan Schwartzman, this exhibition presented the diversity and durability of art made in Ohio, by artists who lived there because they wanted to. Included were several artists from each of the state’s major centers - Akron, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus and Dayton. As this selection shows, art made in Ohio had little ‘regional’ character, at least when compared to Chicago or Texas. There was no perceptible unifying sensibility or tradition to which a given community adheres. Much of Ohio’s art was energized, informed, exciting, vital. A great deal of the activity - at least in Akron, Columbus, and Dayton - was centered around universities: faculties, students, dropouts, and opponents.1
