Found:re Contemporary and Found:re Phoenix Hotel, located at 1100 N. Central Ave., announced the opening of their latest art exhibition. Hung across the first floor of the hotel is “WTFolk” (What the Folk), which debuted in mid-July. This exhibition cycle presents a collection of local artists whose work expands, challenges, honors or reimagines folk art.

“We are excited to present this new exhibition to our art community and art lovers,” said Jordan Zurn, Found:re’s group sales and catering manager and art and culture curator. “‘WTFolk’ aims to ask what folk art is and how visual languages continue to evolve in the present.”

The exhibit features the work of dozens of artists explored through a variety of mediums, in 2D and 3D work. The chosen artworks consider the objects, symbols, patterns and stories that carry meaning across generations.

“WTFolk” will remain on display through Sunday, Jan. 10, 2027. The works will be for sale in person and at www.foundrecontemporary.com. For additional information, visit www.foundrehotels.com.
