We think of imagination as an electric spark, a brainstorm or a flash of insight. But the imagination on display in the exhibition is just the opposite. It is deliberate. Though they read on the Internet and watch CNN, many of these young artists and writers' sense that it is their duty to slow the flow of images-they are glutted. Their instinct is to shape and select.
