Sights & Sounds

Senses collide in this year-long exhibition filled with sights and
sounds that come to life in the art. The interplay of line, color,
and shape provokes auditory nuances that offer viewers a new approach to experiencing
the art. A lesson plan for use by classroom teachers is an added component.
Academia Invitational

This exhibition invites the faculties of the University of Nebraska Art Departments to exhibit their newest works at the Museum of
Nebraska Art. Hand selected, the mix of sculptures, paintings, prints, ceramics, among other art forms, is a rare chance to view works
together by these University educators.
Nebraska Now: Christina Narwicz
October 10, 2009 - January 3, 2010
For the first time, Omaha artist Christina Narwicz brings her large-scale oil
paintings to MONA’s Yanney Skylight Gallery as part of the Nebraska Now series.
While the artist’s works can be viewed simply as lovely, she successfully merges
ideas and feelings of both the earthly and the ethereal in her textural and gestural
paintings. Pulling from organic imagery; Narwicz draws forms with a calligraphic
line atop a softly painted background where colors float, blend, and sway with each
other. A New York native, Narwicz first came to Nebraska through the
artist-in-residency program at the Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts in 1985.
She has made her home in Nebraska where she works as a full-time artist.
