New Landscapes, New Vistas: Women Artists of New Mexico

Stories and artwork by Janet Lippincott, Agnes Sims, Doris Cross and more. Runs through 5/31.

In the first half of the 20th century, a number of women artists who were frustrated by a lack of recognition on the East Coast packed up and left everything behind. In New Mexico’s isolated art colonies, they found the freedom and social acceptance to excel. Matthews Gallery presents the stories and artwork of Janet Lippincott, Agnes Sims, Doris Cross and other women who found a powerful voice in the Land of Enchantment.
