From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art. Their recommendations are lightly edited from the audio heard in the player above. Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.Artists at work Diane Richard of St. Paul worked for 21 years at the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia), and she wants people to know about “Artists at Work: the Mia Staff Art Show.” It's tucked away in the community commons area just past the cafe and the family center (pro tip: you can bring your lunch with you to the exhibit!) The show runs through April 13. Diane explains: You might never have thought about it, but the people who work in museums are often artists themselves — and good ones, too. They work as security guards, and they create public programs, hang art on the walls, help you figure out where you're going, and sell you stuff in the shop. And they work in everything from oil painting to watercolor and prints, ceramic sculpture to embroidery, video and collage. There's even a tarot card created from crop seeds.  One work waves from the wall: the menacing loon flag was security guard Rob McBroom official entry into the state's flag contest.  As I strolled around, Cara O'Connell's portrait of Myrna drew me over. It's from O'Connell's series on caregivers. Myrna is a beatific presence under a halo of robins. For me, the showstopper was Adam White's “It Came with the Room.” White's triptych collage is layered with thousands of cartoon bubbles filled with intriguing messages, many about the hellhound Cerebus. You could spend hours in front of it searching for meaning. Overall, the show gives insight into the mostly unseen hands responsible for MIA's daily operations. What comes through is their passion for art.— Diane RichardThe art of mental health Carla Mansoni is the director of arts and cultural Engagement at CLUES, one of the largest and oldest Latin organizations in Minnesota. She wants people to know about “The Art of Mental Health,” a group show of art created by people who work in the mental health field, curated by Kasia Chojan-Cymerman and Thrace Soryn. The exhibit at the Vine Arts Center in Minneapolis opens this Saturday, Feb. 22, with an artist reception from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. featuring a performance by psychologist/musician Mindy Benowitz. The show runs on Saturdays through March. There is a performance by bluegrass Americana trio Echo Trail on March 15.  Carla says: The idea is to focus on the mental health professionals who also use art to heal themselves. This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase the diversity of art forms and how art and culture also heals the healer, elevating the humanity of those working in mental health spaces. — Carla MansoniSEENJennifer Bowen, founder and director of the Minnesota Prison Writing Workshop, was deeply moved by the exhibit “SEEN” currently on display at the Weisman Art Museum on the University of Minnesota campus in Minneapolis. Curated by Emily Baxter of We Are All Criminals, this show is half a decade in the making. Seven artists partnered with seven incarcerated artists to create installations. The show runs through May 18, with a panel conversation planned for Wednesday, Feb. 26 at 6 p.m. Some installations respond to incarcerated life, such as work by Sarith Peou and Carl Flink, which reflect the steps of traditional Cambodian dance Peou used to keep himself active and healthy while on COVID lockdown in his cell.  Jennifer says: There's another exhibit of a poet named Brian, who's got a massive chandelier of bird cages hanging from the ceiling with some of his poetry being read and voiced over by himself and other folks that he lives with. And I think the title of the poem is “We Can't Hear Ourselves Sing,” and it's about the kind of chaos and cacophony of life inside a prison. It was the first thing I saw when I walked into the exhibit. And it literally took my breath away, the way that it speaks metaphorically not just to the pain that incarceration causes, but to the kind of human need to still find beauty in the midst of that pain. But then there are other artists who chose to think about what the future would look like, or what healing might look like. There's an artist named Ronald who has a garden reminiscent of the garden his grandfather grew when he was in Detroit that's meant to be this kind of healing look forward. It's a really heavy but beautiful exhibit.  And one thing this exhibit does is offers the community, not only a chance to listen on phones to the artists' voices and to see interviews, but it also gives the public a chance to write notes to them that will go back to them. — Jennifer Bowen

Carmen Winant is an artist, photographer, writer, and art professor at The Ohio State University. Her work involves installation and collage work to examine survival and revolt through a feminist lens. Her traveling exhibition “The last safe abortion” opens Jan. 18 at Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts.  “The last safe abortion” is an exploration of women's health clinics and abortion providers, with a particular focus on the Midwest. The installation is composed of photos of behind-the-scenes work related to reproductive healthcare, such as answering phones, sterilizing equipment, conducting training sessions and scheduling appointments.  Bemis' Rachel Adams curated the exhibition, which was organized by the Minneapolis Institute of Art. “The last safe abortion” will be displayed alongside “Synchronicities: Intersecting Figuration with Abstraction.” The installations will run concurrently through May 4. In this episode, Winant is in conversation with Maria Corpuz about the origins of “The last safe abortion,” the logistics of how she put it together, and how Winant's art has been affected by the overturning of Roe v. Wade in 2022.

featured Wiki of the Day

fWotD Episode 2797: Minneapolis Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 31 December 2024 is Minneapolis.Minneapolis is a city in Hennepin County, Minnesota, United States, and its county seat. With a population of 429,954, it is the state's most populous city as of the 2020 census. Located in the state's center near the eastern border, it occupies both banks of the Upper Mississippi River and adjoins Saint Paul, the state capital of Minnesota. Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and the surrounding area are collectively known as the Twin Cities, a metropolitan area with 3.69 million residents. Minneapolis is built on an artesian aquifer on flat terrain and is known for cold, snowy winters and hot, humid summers. Nicknamed the "City of Lakes", Minneapolis is abundant in water, with thirteen lakes, wetlands, the Mississippi River, creeks, and waterfalls. The city's public park system is connected by the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway.Dakota people originally inhabited the site of today's Minneapolis. European colonization and settlement began north of Fort Snelling along Saint Anthony Falls—the only natural waterfall on the Mississippi River. Location near the fort and the falls' power—with its potential for industrial activity—fostered the city's early growth. For a time in the 19th century, Minneapolis was the lumber and flour milling capital of the world, and as home to the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, it has preserved its financial clout into the 21st century. A Minneapolis Depression-era labor strike brought about federal worker protections. Work in Minneapolis contributed to the computing industry, and the city is the birthplace of General Mills, the Pillsbury brand, Target Corporation, and Thermo King mobile refrigeration.The city's major arts institutions include the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Walker Art Center, and the Guthrie Theater. Four professional sports teams play downtown. Prince is survived by his favorite venue, the First Avenue nightclub. Minneapolis is home to the University of Minnesota's main campus. The city's public transport is provided by Metro Transit, and the international airport, serving the Twin Cities region, is located towards the south on the city limits.Residents adhere to more than fifty religions. Despite its well-regarded quality of life, Minneapolis has stark disparities among its residents—arguably the most critical issue confronting the city in the 21st century. Governed by a mayor-council system, Minneapolis has a political landscape dominated by the Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party (DFL), with Jacob Frey serving as mayor since 2018.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:31 UTC on Tuesday, 31 December 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Minneapolis on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Joanna.

These are all local organizations helping people in western North Carolina: Southern Smoke Foundation; Asheville Food & Beverage United (also here); and Beloved Asheville. The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago is presenting "Andrea Carlson: Shimmer on Horizons," the latest exhibition in its "Chicago Works" series. Across painting, video, sculpture, and two billboards (along Interstate 94 between Illinois and Wisconsin), "Shimmer on Horizons" presents Carlson's investigation of how landscapes are constructed both politically and culturally. The exhibition was curated by Iris Colburn and is on view through February 2, 2025. Carlson's work may also be seen in "Andrea Carlson: Future Cache" at the University of Michigan Museum of Art, which features a 40-foot-tall memorial wall that towers over visitors, commemorating the Cheboiganing (Burt Lake) Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians who were violently burned from their land in Northern Michigan on October 15, 1900. Curated by Jennifer Friess, the presentation is on view through June 2025. Carlson is also included within "Scientia Sexualis" at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles through March 2, 2025. The exhibition, realized as part of the Getty's "PST ART: Art & Science Collide" program, centers research-driven interventions into raced and gendered assumptions that structure scientific disciplines governing our sense of the sexual body. It was curated by Jennifer Doyle and Jeanne Vaccaro. Carlson (Grand Portage Ojibwe/European descent) typically addresses land and its history by foregrounding decolonization narratives. Museums that have featured solo exhibitions of her work include the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian, New York, and the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Her work is in the collection of museums such as the National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, and the Denver Art Museum. She is also the co-founder of the Center for Native Futures in Chicago. Chicagoans: on Saturday Carlson and poet Heid E. Erdrich will be in conversation at the MCA at 2:30 pm.

In the 1930s, Grant Wood is one of the most famous people in America, the artist behind "American Gothic"—the painting of the man, the woman, and the pitchfork, standing outside their house. An artwork so celebrated and so curious it's called the “modern Mona Lisa.” But as times change and jealousy spreads, Wood suddenly finds himself fighting for his life and livelihood, protecting a secret he hid almost everywhere but in his achingly quirky, queer art.

"Thirty-five years ago, Joe Minter received a vision. Soon, his half-acre property outside Birmingham, Alabama, began to fill with sculpture—reflections on everything from slavery to 9/11 to climate change—fashioned out of junk: car parts, toys, industrial detritus, gizmos of all sorts. An elaborate example of the Southern Black tradition of the “yard show," with Minter as its genial showman.

Carleton College senior Esme Krohn loves the Perlman Teaching Museum on campus, and she was at the opening night of its new exhibit “Towards a Warm Embrace” by Finnegan Shannon and Ezra Benus. The hands-on, interactive exhibit explores themes of ableism and disability as well as the power of touch in a post-pandemic world. Both artists are New York-based, though Shannon is a Carlton grad, and some of the pieces were created in collaboration with Carlton art students. One such piece that Krohn particularly liked consists of a series of heating pads with original cyanotype prints for covers. The heating pads are in a room with warm lighting, creating a space where she could imagine chilling with friends. Many pieces invite visitors to touch them, and there are numerous places to sit, including a bench whose label says, “This exhibit has made me stand for too long.”  The show runs through April 14. The Perlman Teaching Museum is free and open to visitors. It's located inside the Weitz Center for Creativity on the Carlton College campus in Northfield.  There will be an event connected to the exhibit on Jan. 19, Convocation with Jerron Herman.Sarah Larsson is a Minneapolis-based singer and an organizer of next weekend's Klezmer on Ice. This Friday evening, she's looking forward to Abinnet Berhanu's Ahndenet at Icehouse in Minneapolis. Ahndenet means “unity,” and this performance will combine music from both the East and West African diaspora. Ethiopian drummer and composer Abinnet Berhanu of Minneapolis brings his deep knowledge of Ethiopian and American jazz and pop, featuring the talents of local Ethiopian vocalist Genet Abate. They share the stage with Kevin Washington, who incorporates Afro-Latino, hip hop and R&B beats along with West African diaspora rhythms and jazz. “One thing that I think is really interesting about Abinnet and his music,” says Larsson, is that “he talks a lot about how there are so, so many different styles and traditions of music that come from Ethiopia, but kind of what people tend to hear is only one very kind of sterilized and also almost Americanized style of pop music. And he's been doing a lot of work for many years to go down into the roots and study these very specific different lineages. He names the teachers and the singers of the songs. And what he's trying to do is illuminate and bring together these different styles, by actually naming them and where they come from.” Artist Brian Sago teaches photography and printmaking at Blake School, and he often includes the photography of Gordon Parks (1912 – 2006) in his classes. Sago was excited to see a collection of Parks' photodocumentary work at the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Parks, who lived in St. Paul during his teens and young adulthood, is considered one of the greatest photographers of the 20th century, in addition to his work as a composer, author and filmmaker. He was the only Black photography fellow with the Farm Security Administration when he met Ella Watson, who worked cleaning the building. The 60 photographs on display portray Watson's life and work, which Parks used to document the social inequities in Washington, D.C., in 1942. His most famous photograph shows Watson holding a broom and a mop in front of the American flag — a visual reference to Grant Woods' “American Gothic” painting. Sago says Gordon Parks' photographs offer “a window of the history on what it's like to be a Black American. His photographs give such a nuanced level. They're beautiful to look at: his photographs are all gorgeous. But the sensitivity with which he was taking pictures and the situations he was able to get into by being a Black photographer who was paid by the federal government for much of his career, that's really profound.” “American Gothic: Gordon Parks and Ella Watson” is on display through June 23 at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Admission is free.

Without it, finding Reinis's work would have been challenging. But his self-portrait in the style of Claude Mellan's Holy Face, the one with a single line emanating from the subject's nose, is a marvel. Ann and Reinis talk about how engraving is simultaneously the most simple and direct of techniques while being the most difficult. They talk about tricks and tools shared by artists thanks to the internet: how to transfer a drawing onto a shiny copper plate for engraving (thanks, Andrew Raftery), what recipe to use for a darkened paste to fill already carved lines to see progress (thanks, Lembit Lõhmus), choosing a non-toxic solvent and trying out a custom tube of ink (thanks, Ad Stijnman), about non-toxic electrolytic etching (thanks, Jason Scuilla). They talk about the pitfalls of selling Intagram-worthy art, why there's little-to-no printmaking culture in Latvia, and about how overdue we are for a severe magnetic storm that could wipe out electronic media, documents, art pointing to the importance of printed objects.  Reinis Gailitis (Latvia, born 1992).

The artist's drew from a hat of pre-considered topics to speak to and expand upon, including: Ancestral trade routes or sharing knowledge within a cultural continuum such as how culture, language and goods traveled precontact; Indigenous memory in relation to the American Myth; Recognition of Indigenous complexity; Indigenous futures including shared histories and futures; and Institutional critique or a generative airing of problematic power structures impact on Native people. Broken Boxes would like to thank UMMA staff and curators and Monument Lab for being present for this generative and complex conversation to take place. We would like to especially thank the students of the Native American Student Association at the University of Michigan, who welcomed Broken Boxes and the artists and helped make this live audience recording a wonderful experience.

Announcer: This is Minnesota Native News. This week, the Minneapolis Institute of Art is currently holding an exhibition focusing on indigenous photography from the late 1890's to the present day. Reporter Chandra Colvin has the story. Chandra Colvin: In October, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, also known as the MIA, opened an exhibition focused on Native Photography titled, “In Our Hands.” The exhibit was formed primarily by a council of Native artists and scholars. Jaida Grey Eagle, who is a member of the Oglala Lakota Sioux tribe, is a photographer and artist. She is a co-curator for the exhibit and was the initial inspiration for it during her time as a fellow at the MIA. Jaida Grey Eagle: I've been practicing photography since I was a young kid. I think I was probably 11 when I got my first camera. Native, you're always wondering, “are there other people doing what I'm doing?” In schools here, they never talk about Native photographers in Minnesota. And it wasn't until I went to the Institute of American Indian Arts down in Santa Fe that I was introduced to this whole world of native photographers. Why do I have to travel so far away from home to find that? Why is that just not talked about? I think for myself, I just, I really want it to inspire people, and to just introduce them to this incredible history of, you know, Native people practicing the art of photography. It's such a different experience to see photography from the viewpoint of Native people. So it's inspiring to me, and I just hope that it's inspiring to other people to just see the art practiced by the people themselves that it's about. CC: The Native artists and scholars worked alongside MIA curators, like Jill Oberg, a curator of Native arts and a co-curator of the exhibit. Jill Oberg: Jaida was our fellow at the time. And she came in and asked us about our collection of photography made by Native people. And we came together and we knew that we didn't have many. And that we needed to build that. So it was a great way for us to understand the field through going to the experts who have been dedicating their entire lives to the field. And that was the beginning of the exhibition.   CC: The exhibit features over 150 photographs by, of, and for Native people. Joseph Allen, who is a member of the Rosebud Sioux tribe and a direct descendent of White Earth Nation, has been doing photography for 30 years. His featured piece titled, “Free Land,” was captured in front of the MIA in 1992.  Joseph Allen: From that original image that, you know, is in the show - it's such a small piece, it's 8in by 10in. But that connection back to that beginning, I lived in Minneapolis for 25 years. And so and then having that image taken on the grounds of the MIA, that really connects to my career, you know, as a photographer it means a lot.  CC: Allen said it's an honor to be a Minnesota-based photographer featured in the exhibit. Co-curator Casey Riley agrees. Casey Riley: We say this throughout the sort of overviews of the show, but, you know, this really was a show first and foremost, for Native audiences, and Native visitors. And, you know, this, hopefully, is an invitation to many younger photographers to join the profession, and continue this work, because there are so many amazing people who have influenced the medium from the beginning. And I would say that for me as someone who's trained in photo history, that is a really important message for all of us who have studied the field. Native people have been left out of our discourse, and they have been so important to its development. I think it's a really important takeaway. That, you know, the canon needs to change. CC: “In Our Hands” will be on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts  until January 14th [2024]. Members of the indigenous community can visit for free. For Minnesota Native News, this is Chandra Colvin. Announcer: For more information on the In Our Hands exhibit, visit the MIA's website at new.artsmia.org.

HUBERT JOLY is the former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Best Buy and is now a senior lecturer at Harvard Business School. He is also a member of the board of directors of Johnson & Johnson and Ralph Lauren Corporation, a member of the International Advisory Board of HEC Paris, and a Trustee of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. Joly has been recognized as one of the top 100 CEOs in the world by the Harvard Business Review, one of the top 30 CEOs in the world by Barron's and one of the top 10 CEOs in the U.S. by Glassdoor.Quotes:Marcel asks Hubert what he believes business is about. “At the heart of business... is the pursuit of a noble purpose, putting people at the center, embracing all stakeholders, and treating profit as an outcome, not the goal,”[3:12] Hubert responds. “There are three imperatives to an organization and tackling them in the correct sequence leads to optimal outcomes: a people imperative - having the right teams properly motivated and equipped; a business imperative - having happy customers who you sell good products to; and a financial imperative - about profit. [10:05]” Hubert shares how financial results have to be the end focus. First, you have to start with people; when you do this, the financial results will come. “The old model of leadership portrayed a leader as a superhero here to save the day, probably the smartest person in the room, and, unfortunately, too driven by power, fame, money or glory,” Hubert claims. “This [type of leadership] doesn't work... [people] want to be part of the journey and the solution.” [16:55] Hubert debunks the concept of perfectionism as a key to success; he shares how demonstrating his imperfection actually helped create the right environment for optimal performance at work. “Operational progress creates routine degrees of freedom, so sometimes you have to start with the basics before you think about creating an amazing future,'' [35:47] Hubert advises. He describes the five ingredients for creating a fabulous work environment, which are: connecting dreams, developing authentic human connections, fostering autonomy, achieving mastery, and putting the wind at your back. “Work is love made visible... Business is about embracing all stakeholders… This is a beautiful friendship you're building with all stakeholders, treating all of them, in a sense, as customers.” [50:30] Hubert shares how he thinks leaders love in a practical way, day in and day out.Mentioned in this episode:Hubert JolyMarcel Schwantes
