Exploring the creative exchange between painter Grace Hartigan and the bold New York poets who inspired her, Grace Hartigan: The Gift of Attention shares a fresh perspective on the pioneering American artist.

Gender, Genre, Generation examines the lasting potency of abstraction through the recent work of Candida Alvarez, Rochelle Feinstein, Carrie Moyer, and Amy Sillman—four painters offering the most consequential proposition for abstract painting today.

Curated by UNL students in Professor Dana Fritz’s landscape photography seminar, New Horizons presents photographs of the Great Plains that explore the horizon—the region’s defining feature—as a point of connection.

Hyphen American explores how identity is presented and interrogated in visual art during the United States’ celebration of the two-hundred-and-fiftieth anniversary of its founding.
