Exciting Exhibits around Wisconsin

​Looking to spend your leisure time exploring Wisconsin art museums? Here are some of Wisconsin's best art museums with their current exhibits!

​- Chazen Museum of Art: "In the Studio focuses attention on the artist’s studio, and the unique environments in which artists do their work. The objects on view are selected from across the museum’s collection, and draw connections and inevitable comparisons between artists of different times, cultures, and media". It will run until August 11

- Museum of Wisconsin Art: "2019 Member's Show showcases works by 250 MOWA members hanging salon style in the State Gallery. With work by professional artists and weekend warriors installed on equal footing, this exhibition offers an invaluable look into the creative vision of contemporary Wisconsin art."

- Racine Art Museum: "Represent: Exploring Portraits from RAM's Collection features pieces that embrace the idea of a portrait as an investigation of character and situation, tangible details, and abstract elements. From self-portraits to works that encapsulate the essence of a subject through metaphor or emotion, these works encourage contemplation about how human beings understand one another as well as the world around them."

- Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum: "Flora, Fauna, Font: Illustrating the Alphabet features Kandis Vermeer Phillips’ illuminated alphabet intertwined with plants, mammals, and insects. Phillips integrated extensive research into the history of and the natural materials used in medieval illuminated manuscripts into an alphabet primer for her granddaughter, combining decorative letters with representations of flowers and creatures found in her garden or during family travels."
