Floyd Memorial Library

Please join us for the opening reception of Stow Wengenroth + The Flacks: The Greenport GroupAnd featuring new work by contemporary marionette-maker Carmen Campos The main body of The Greenport Group comprises nearly fifty rarely exhibited artworks by one of America’s most acclaimed lithographers, Stow Wengenroth (1906–1978). Wengenroth lived in Greenport, NY, for over twenty years and his intricate lithographs are in the collections of America’s most prominent museums, including the National Gallery of Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, The Met and MoMA.
The exhibition also features Wengenroth’s local artist cohorts—his wife, the doll- and marionette-maker Edith Flack Ackley (1887–1970), and her sister, children’s storybook author and illustrator Marjorie Flack (1897–1958). Items on display from the library's collection include Ackley dolls, books and manuscripts, and inscribed children's books by Marjorie Flack.&nbsp;While the library does not hold any original Edith Flack Ackley marionettes—objects that are exceptionally rare—this installation features two newly commissioned cloth marionettes by contemporary puppet-maker Carmen Campos, Ed.D.
