The Grinnell College Museum of Art has opened two new exhibitions. 'Unruly Lines: The Art of Sonia Sekula,' curated by professor Jenny Anger and museum curator Dan Strong, occupies the east gallery, while 'Rhizomatic Intimacies: Photography from the Collection of Keith Jantzen and Scott Beth,' curated by students from Michael Mackenzie's Exhibition Seminar, is on view in the west gallery.
These dual shows highlight the collaborative work between faculty and students within the college's art history department. The exhibitions demonstrate the museum's role as a teaching institution, showcasing both faculty-led scholarship on an under-recognized artist and hands-on curatorial experience for students working with a private photography collection.
