Location, SetHandler and Aliases in httpd.conf

Hi, sorry if this is slightly OT but I need some help getting my apache config straightened out.

I want to set up Apache so that requests to the document root are handled by mod_perl, but requests to a special images directory are not handled by mod_perl.  Currently I have it set up like so:

------------------------------------------------------
Alias /art /usr/local/apache/htdocs/art

<Location />
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler MyModule
</Location>

------------------------------------------------------

Apparently Location takes precidence over Alias because it's ignoring my Alias and going to my perl handler.

Does anyone know a way to make it do what I'm trying to do?
