Olena Mosiyevych
Resilience
1208 O Street | On view now through May 4th
"The Russian aggression of Ukraine brought me to Nebraska. War has cancelled my exhibitions and my paintings in museums have been lost. Meanwhile, my parents remain in Ukraine, my siblings are dispersed, my children have become bilingual, and America is my home. As an immigrant facing hardship, I've sought the Midwestern landscape as inspiration for my paintings. Trees symbolize stability and protection. My tender roots are now feeling their way through a new homeland. I search for continuity of my Ukrainian past and American present with hopes for the future."

Series "Resilience"
"Resilience is a series of paintings that explores and celebrates the strength, identity, and persistence required by immigrants, and especially women. With this series, I hope to inspire positive change, promote understanding, and encourage a deeper appreciation for the sources of strength that come with embracing a new home and cultural identity."

Series "War"
"War is a shock that facilitates self-discovery through suffering. By revealing hidden weaknesses, hidden strengths arise. Therefore this series focuses not only on the pain of the present, but also hope for the future – and documents that process. Within this framework, I seek to record my reflections as an artist who was forced to leave Ukraine, but remains inextricably linked with the ordeal of my country through a shared artery of pain."

John Steuart Curry
Weathering The Storm
Muskegon Museum of Art | May 23 - Sept 4
The Muskegon Museum of Art is proud to present John Steuart Curry: Weathering the Storm, a showcase reunion of Curry’s most iconic masterpieces as new research reveals a fresh perspective into the life and art of one of America’s most influential artists. This exhibition will bring together Curry’s masterworks under one roof for the first time in over two decades.
John Steuart Curry: Weathering the Storm highlights the artwork that visually defined the Midwest and tells the captivating and tragic story behind the work and life of John Steuart Curry. His paintings, which depict picturesque rural landscapes, communal gatherings, and most famously, the devastating natural disasters that impacted the Midwest, influenced the national perception of life in the region through popular culture and media in the late 1920’s.
Iconic paintings, such as “Tornado Over Kansas” and “Baptism in Kansas”, will be featured in the exhibition alongside other notable works loaned from The Cincinnati Art Museum, The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, The Saint Louis Art Museum, The Sheldon Museum of Art, The Syracuse University Art Museum, The Whitney Museum of American Art, and Kiechel Fine Art.
