Look Again:
Portraits of Daring Women

Have you ever heard of fearless tiger trainer, Mabel Stark or pioneering African American journalist Ida B. Wells? The New York Times Overlooked series shares the stories of remarkable people, like Mabel and Ida, who were often forgotten. Many of these stories inspired artist Julie Lapping Rivera to create woodcut and collage portraits of women from Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to Bollywood legend Madhubala.

Look Again is a is a traveling exhibition from Exhibit Envoy. For our presentation at the Grace Hudson Museum, you will also find portraits of notable women from over 15 Mendocino artists. They’ve drawn, quilted, painted, printed, and photographed their own family members and local women of note, along with historical and popular figures.
