"Houdini:  Art and Magic"

The first art exhibition in an American art museum on this master magician, Houdini: Art and Magic explores how Houdini's role as an American icon was transformed across three centuries: first in the late 19th century by the artist’s own interpretation of himself; by popular culture in the 20th century; and today by contemporary artists who conjure Houdini as an audacious performer and showman of raw physicality.
