Abstract
The annual seed art competition at the Minnesota State Fair evokes the heritage of an agriculture-based economy. But portraits of middle-American icons rendered in the seeds of Minnesota crops, exemplified
by the work of old-timer Lilian Colton, rub shoulders with a more contemporary view of Minnesota9s place in society presented by urban crop artists like Cathy Camper.
