The McManus: Dundee's Art Gallery & Museum presents 'Border Crossings: Ten Scottish Masters of Modern Art,' an exhibition running from 28 June 2025 to 14 June 2026. Curated by Janet McKenzie, the show highlights ten Scottish-born artists—including Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Eduardo Paolozzi, and William Turnbull—who left Scotland to train and build careers in London, Paris, and New York, contributing significantly to international modernism.
Bernard Williams' solo exhibition "Crossings" is on view across the Elmhurst Art Museum campus, including its parking lot and the Mies van der Rohe house. The show features sculptures, paintings, and installations that reference African American history, such as the "Spirit of Bessie Coleman" works honoring the pioneering aviator, and "Cowboy Dream" with its roosters and cowboy figure. The exhibition's title and layout deliberately avoid linear narratives, instead forcing viewers to navigate a fragmented path that mirrors the complexities of historical memory and racial injustice.
