Fables, myths, and fairy tales have
long allowed cultures to explore wondrous aspects of their world. As
times and contexts shift, so do these stories grow and evolve in the
imaginations of their audiences. These traditions have been embraced by
artists who use the mediums of film and video to conceive new folklore
or adapt older tales to reveal often overlooked elements of more recent
history.
Once Upon a Time features a selection of video installations and
single-channel works from the collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim
Museum that explore this practice in contemporary art.
