Sun., July 14 at 2 p.m.
Join M Executive Director Kristin Makholm as she explores contemporary Native American art in the M’s permanent collection, including works by George Morrison, Frank Big Bear, Julie Buffalohead, and Wendy Red Star.
In March 2019, multidisciplinary artist Moheb Soliman was artist-in-residence at the M. In this essay, he relates how his search for Great Lakes-related landscapes in the M’s collection led to an unexpected deep dive into unexpected waters: the seldom-considered, eccentric database used to catalog and store archival information about the artworks held by the museum.
Before he began his residency at the M this past spring, artist and poet Moheb Soliman spoke with Curator of Learning and Engagement about his work and what he hoped to explore during his time at the museum. Don’t miss your chance to hear from the artist in person at an event on Thurs., July 11, 6 p.m. at the M!
Fri., Oct. 25, 6 p.m.
Writer, performer, and theater artist May Lee-Yang, the M’s fall artist-in-residence, and guests will share haunting stories in honor of Halloween.
