Artists’ Reception: Mary Burns & Madeline Grace Martin
Join the Wisconsin Academy to celebrate the exhibitions "Women and Water: Woven Portraits from Around the World" by textile artist Mary Burns (Mercer) and "Of Words and Trees: A Collaboration with My Father" by multidisciplinary artist Madeline Grace Martin (Milwaukee) at the James Watrous Gallery. These paired solo exhibitions will be on view from November 24, 2023 through February 4, 2024.
Artists’ talks begin at 6:30 pm.
Free and open to the public. Light refreshments available.
Mary Burns’ gorgeous jacquard weavings celebrate a host of remarkable women engaged in water rights, water quality, and water science, subjects that play an important part in the Wisconsin Academy’s history. Madeline Grace Martin, best known for her portraiture, has created a powerful body of sculptural objects, collage, and embroideries honoring her father Peter Martin–his life, his poetry, and his work with incarcerated individuals.
