Our Next Exhibiition
East Coast artist Julie Lapping Rivera has been creating a series of portraits highlighting women who were significant but often unsung in their time. This ongoing portfolio of woodcut and collage portraits represents brave and inspiring women from around the globe and across centuries, many of whose accomplishments have not been adequately acknowledged. This exhibtion was originally inspired by The New York Times “Overlooked” series, which, since March of 2018, has been sharing the stories of remarkable people who were overlooked by the Times’ obituaries in the past.
Look Again: Portraits of Daring Women is a touring exhibition developed in partnership with Julie Lapping Rivera and draws upon a previous exhibition mounted at the D’Amour Museum of Fine Arts in Massachusetts. It is being traveled by Exhibit Envoy.
In our presentation at the Grace Hudson Museum, we have supplemented the show with artworks around the theme of important women, done in various media by contemporary Mendocino County artists.
An opening reception for Look Again will take place on Friday, June 5, as part of the Ukiah First Friday Art Walk.
