NEW YORK CITY - A story recounted by Robert Shaw, author of American Weathervanes: The Art of the Winds and guest curator of the companion exhibition of the same name at the American Folk Art Museum (AFAM), suggests the ways in which these exuberant sculptures are, if not folk art, the quintessence of Americana. Seeking new weathervanes to offer consumers, Boston manufacturer Leonard W. Cushing (1830-1907) instructed ornamental carver Harry Leach (1809-1885), a maker of wooden models, to "carve some horses for us," horses by then the most popular American weathervane form. Cushing continued producing vanes introduced by his predecessor Alvin L. Jewell (1821-1867), but he wanted something new. Perhaps inspired by the 1867 race between the legendary trotter Ethan Allen and his upstart challenger, Dexter, and familiar with Currier & Ives' lithograph of the contest, Cushing asked Leach to model the two steeds. Cushing's appropriation is a clear instance of America's imagery-making machinery at work, of popular culture repurposed in the service of national identity. As AFAM director and chief executive officer Jason T. Busch wryly observes, "Weathervanes are markers of so much more than the weather."
