A still image from a short film showing what looks like a beach jungle on fire in three places. In reality, the image is a hanging, large-scale photograph of a beach jungle engulfed with flames. Sand and plants can be seen in front of the photograph, further adding to the illusion.

Event Description

About the Event

Be among the first to visit New Worlds: Women to Watch 2024, the seventh and largest installment of the museum’s Women to Watch exhibition series. Presented every three years, Women to Watch is a dynamic collaboration between the museum and its network of outreach committees. The committees participating in New Worlds worked with curators in their regions to create shortlists of artists. From this list, NMWA curators selected the artists and works to exhibit at the museum.

In New Worlds, visionary artists reimagine the past, present alternate realities, and inspire audiences to create different futures. During the past few years, our world has been transformed by a global pandemic, advocacy for social reform, and political division. How have these extraordinary times inspired artists? Works by the 28 artists featured in New Worlds explore these ideas from perspectives that shift across geographies, cultural viewpoints, and time.
