A sweeping new exhibition at the Plains Art Museum is casting long-overdue attention on women artists, drawing together four-hundred years of work ranging from 17th-century Italian Baroque etchings to contemporary pieces from the Upper Midwest.

Women Artists: Four Centuries of Creativity features recent acquisitions from former MCAD faculty members Hazel Belvo and the late Judith Roode. The exhibition also features works by regional artists including Dyani White Hawk, Julie Buffalohead, and Laura Youngbird, alongside art-historical icons such as Helen Frankenthaler and Berthe Morisot.

Land Acknowledgement

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) acknowledges it is located on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous people. This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism. We recognize that this place has a complex and layered history. As a community dedicated to creativity, MCAD is committed to ongoing efforts to support and advocate for American Indian Nations and peoples.
