Keyes Art in Sag Harbor will open “Flock of Genius,” an exhibition of work by Rainer Andreesen, Cornelia Foss, ROZEAL, Tammy Smith, Warren McHugh, and Edith Vonnegut, with a reception Saturday from 5 to 7 p.m. It will remain on view through July 12.

Ms. Vonnegut has said her aim is to “rewrite the history of women, as I think we have been portrayed incorrectly from Eve on.” ROZEAL’s paintings and collages bring together Asian and African-American aesthetic traditions. Ms. Smith is known for her evocative and whimsical creations inspired by animals.

McHugh, who died in 1986, was a folk artist whose carved wooden figures included members of his Sag Harbor community. Ms. Foss is a painterly realist who paints the beaches and landscapes of the East End, while Mr. Andreesen is known for his often intense, expressive portraits.
