Daily from Fri., November 7 until Wed., January 7 |
Northeast |
|
Argentine photographer Eduardo Blidner is no stranger to Minneapolis's Icebox Gallery. In 2000 the gallery hosted Blidner's first solo show, which launched his series "Tango Argentino" around the world. Last year Icebox was the first gallery in the world to host Blidner's globetrotting... More >> |

Eero Saarinen: Shaping the Future Minneapolis Institute Of Arts |
Daily from Sun., September 14 until Sun., January 4 |
Uptown/Eat Street |
|
It might not be well known, but Minnesota is actually a hotbed for architecture by 20th- and 21st-century masters. Whether it's Frank Gehry's bendy-metal Weisman Art Museum, César Pelli's Wells Fargo Center and Minneapolis Central Library, or Frank Lloyd Wright's Lindholm service station... More >> |

INDIA: Public Places, Private Spaces Minneapolis Institute Of Arts |
Daily from Sun., October 26 until Sun., January 18 |
Uptown/Eat Street |
|
When we think of art from India, most of us probably conjure images of Bollywood films or Hindu deities with four arms. This massive show of contemporary Indian photography and video art at MIA promises to be eye-opening, playing with some Indian traditions and stereotypes and exploding others.... More >> |

MJ Heubach: A Collection of New Work Nicademus |
Daily from Sat., November 15 until Sat., December 6 |
Midway/Frogtown |
|
Local graphic designer, painter, illustrator, photographer, and general artist extraordinaire MJ Heubach is like a cinematographer or director of photography in film biz: His work is seen and enjoyed everywhere, but his name is far from household. Heubach has designed for Dunn Bros. Coffee... More >> |

Robert Rauschenberg: Prints/Editions 1962-78 Minneapolis Institute Of Arts |
Daily from Sat., October 4 until Sun., March 15 |
Uptown/Eat Street |
|
Forty or 50 years on, it's hard to imagine now the manic energy of the art world in the 1960s, or the way that Robert Rauschenberg and Jasper Johns, in particular, blew the doors off of artistic sensibilities at the time. Their libertine experimentalism bridged abstract expressionism and pop... More >> |

|
Tetsumi Kudo: Garden of Metamorphosis Walker Art Center |
Daily from Sat., October 18 until Sun., January 11 |
Minneapolis (Downtown) |
|
Late Japanese artist Tetsumi Kudo is sort of like the pinball-ish game pachinko: While hugely popular in Japan and select other places on the map, he just never took off in America. Sure, some American art scholars can talk about his impact on postwar art movements. But despite the 18 years... More >> |

Danny Saathoff: The Mechanical Alchemist Gallery 360 |
Daily from Sat., November 8 until Sun., January 11 |
Edina |
|
In the parlance of the art world, which seems to put a premium on stuffiness, Danny Saathoff's new show, "The Mechanical Alchemist," is a collection of "interactive assemblages." But don't let the terms fool you; the art is very anti-stuffy. You can think of the pieces as artistic Bop-Its.... More >> |

The Hidden World of Bears: Photography by Lynn Rogers Bell Museum Of Natural History |
Daily from Wed., August 27 until Sun., January 4 |
University |
|
Grizzly Adams has nothing on biologist Lynn Rogers. Rogers has been studying bears for 40 years, getting close to them, and apparently earning the animals' trust. At the Wildlife Research Center in Ely, Rogers has tracked more than 100 bears with radio collars, some for longer than 20 years. He... More >> |

Toys On Roids Soo Visual Arts Center |
Daily from Fri., November 7 until Wed., December 24 |
Uptown/Eat Street |
|
Despite the title of this show, it is not a series of José Canseco Starting Lineup figurines on display. Although that would be kind of cool, too. The "roids" in Sean Tubridy's "Toys on Roids" do not refer to steroids, but to Polaroid photos. And the "toys" refers to, well, that's pretty... More >> |

Vatican Splendors: From Saint Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Swiss Guard Minnesota History Center |
Daily from Sat., September 27 until Sun., January 11 |
St. Paul (Downtown) |
|
Remember that Onion headline a few years back when Pope John Paul II died? "Heaven Less Opulent Than Vatican, Reports Disappointed Pope." Zing. Everybody knows that the pope and his posse at the Vatican live surrounded by ornate and priceless treasures amid ancient buildings designed and... More >> |

William Lamson: Actions Franklin Art Works |
Daily from Fri., November 7 until Sat., December 20 |
Uptown/Eat Street |
|
Artist William Lamson's video collection "Actions" is perhaps the most entertaining art being created right now. This is not hyperbole. This is not exaggeration. This is not an opinion. This is irrefutable fact. For the project, Lamson made videos of different ways to pop black balloons. It... More >> |
