Details:

The Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Mary L. Nohl Fund Fellowships for Individual Artists program annually awards unrestricted funds to emerging and established local artists to support the creation of new work, or the completion of work in progress. Since 2003, the program has made a significant investment in the greater Milwaukee arts community, encouraging artists to live and make work here. The Fellowships also create—through the jurying process and culminating exhibition—an opportunity to promote local artistic production to a national audience. This group exhibition features the work of the 2019 and 2020 Nohl Fellows. During their respective fellowship years, the artists in both cohorts remained committed to their practices despite the climate of uncertainty and devastation created by the COVID-19 pandemic. Each Nohl Fellow ultimately exhibited work virtually on the Haggerty Museum of Art’s Google Arts & Culture site. While the online exhibition platform provided the opportunity to contextualize work in new and interesting ways, and to extend the reach of the Museum’s programming, it was no substitute for direct engagement with works of art. The Haggerty is delighted to present this group of artists with the exhibition opportunity that was always intended for them.
