*Grand Ambitions: Utah artists have always been ambitious. They studied abroad, created monumental works, and pushed the boundaries of Utah art and creation. This exhibition celebrates the grand ambitions, interests, and aims of our Utah artists from the nineteenth century to the present day.
The Most Noble Subject: This exhibition explores what the artists in Gail Miller and Kim Wilson's private collection considered their "most noble subject." It features masterpieces of Utah and Danish art, including works by historic Utah artists John Hafen, H.L.A. Culmer, Alfred Lambourne, J.T. Harwood, Minerva Teichert, James Christensen, LeConte Stewart, and C.C.A. Christensen that have never before been exhibited publicly. The exhibition prompts students to consider, "what inspires you to create?"
Soviet Stories: Layers of Reality: The works in this exhibition reveal layers of meaning, context, and reality about life in the Soviet Union.
*In Sight, Out of Mind: Though we are constantly surrounded by the environment, it is easy to overlook. Through their artwork the Utah artists in this exhibition force us to consider our environmental oversights. Their work brings to focus forgotten landscapes, surprising juxtapositions, and the impact of human activity, probing the viewer to examine their relationship to the world around them.
*From Student to Studio: In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Annual Utah All-State high School Art Show, the Museum invited back former participants who have since established a career working in the arts. This exhibition emphasizes the impact of arts education and professional art experiences in the lives of students and showcases a wide variety of styles and mediums.
*Round Up: This exhibition celebrates and examines the icons and ideals that shape ongoing visions of the American West.
*Contemporary Voices: This exhibition celebrates the work and voices of a selection of contemporary Native Utah artists, illustrating the vibrancy of artmaking and creativity in Utah's Native communities.
Mixed Reviews: Following WWII, Utah's art community debated the role and merit of Modern Art. In this exhibition we've recreated the world of mid-century Utah art, showing artworks by both traditional and modern artists working in Utah c1946-1960, offering you the opportunity to be the judge -- what is good art?
*Virtual Field Trip available in Spanish!
