Abstract | Describes the 1991 "West as America" exhibition at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American Art, which sought to expose the complicity of art in maintaining a glorious national history while ignoring the dark side. Discusses the consequent controversies and the role of the museum as temple versus forum. (SV) |
