From Sea to Shining Sea
IDOLWILD is proud to present "From Sea to Shining Sea," a group exhibition offering a critical exploration of North American
culture. The exhibition's title derives from the lyrics of the patriotic song "America the Beautiful," composed by Katherine Lee
Bates and Samuel Ward 131 years ago. Inspired by Bates' profound experience while sightseeing in Colorado, this song
encapsulates a vision of America's natural splendor.
"From Sea to Shining Sea" investigates contemporary American identity through the visual contributions of artists Dave Young
Kim, Jesse Wiedel, Beth Davila Waldman, Daisy Velasco, Eric Curtis, Marisa Rodriguez, Nate Zoba and Micke Tong. This
exhibition provides a multifaceted commentary on what it means to be American in the present day, reflecting diverse
perspectives and experiences within the nation's cultural landscape.
