Adapted for the London stage in 2001 by Terry Johnson, The Graduate moved to Broadway with Kathleen Turner as Mrs. Robinson and Jason Biggs as Benjamin Braddock. Later in the run, Lorraine Bracco assumed the role of the libidinous Mrs. Robinson.

The focus of the exhibition is narrative: real or imagined, telling of a story, with variations on the theme. In some works, words are used in themselves as art forms, within the composition of the total work to tell the story, or hint at its meaning. In others, the images or titles may suggest words and meaning to the viewer.
