Taking Up Space
On view January 30 - March 26, 2021, this deeply personal and intimate group show featured a diverse group of women artists who share their stories, cultures, and perspectives through their artistic practice. Staged to supplement rather than negate the typically male-dominated exhibitions of the past, this show recognized how vital diversity and representation are in galleries and museums, as it is in the world at large. This exhibit sought to highlight the struggles and strengths of these artists, offering visitors the opportunity to gain new insights into experiences outside their own.
Exhibiting Artists
Chloe Allred, Catalina Bellizzi-Itiola, Hazel Choo, Alexandra Carter, Lanise Howard, Carmen Mardonez, Elisa Ortega Montilla, Juliana Rico, Jacqueline Valenzuela, and Diane Williams
The Taking Up Space exhibit was also presented virtually in a variety of ways. Online visitors can explore the exhibition through a 3D rendered click thru tour on ArtSteps or watch the Zoom Artist Panel.
