Art in Wisconsin—Art and Science and Art: The Semi-Hidden Wonders of the James Watrous Gallery

The James Watrous Gallery, a nonprofit art space located on the third floor of the Overture Center for the Arts in Madison, Wisconsin, is dedicated to showcasing contemporary artists and curators with ties to the state. Unlike the nearby Madison Museum of Contemporary Art (MMoCA) and Chazen Museum of Art, which feature national and international artists, Watrous Gallery focuses almost exclusively on Wisconsin-based practitioners. Directed by Jody Clowes for the past decade, the gallery selects exhibitions through an open call every three to four years, with a committee of artists, arts workers, and curators from across the state. Recent shows include works by artists such as Shane McAdams, Lois Bielefeld, Dakota Mace, and the collaborative duo Shana McCaw and Brent Budsberg. The gallery is part of the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts & Letters, and each exhibition is featured in the Academy's publication "Wisconsin People & Ideas," often connecting to broader themes like climate and energy.
