INDIANAPOLIS, IN (AAPNW) – The first-ever all-staff exhibition, “Artists Among Us” features 72 original works of art across 21 different Indianapolis Museum of Art departments. This inaugural show will run through Sunday, May 21, 2023 on Floor 1 in the DeBoest Lecture Hallway.
“This has been such an incredible opportunity. I am the nerd who counted that my painting is approximately 150 steps from Van Gogh on the second floor. I have shed tears that my painting is even in the same building,” said Stacy Arnold, Guest Experience LUME Associate. “It feels incredible to be taken seriously as an employee here and to see not only mine, but my coworkers amazing work.”
A wide range of media and styles are present in this staff exhibition, including paintings, drawings, photographs, sculptures, textile arts, found objects and written word. The diverse materials and approaches reflect the breadth and depth of the exceptional minds at Newfields.
“During my first few months at Newfields, I have actively listened to the many employees that bring Newfields to life. Through this process, I discovered the talent, passion, depth, and skill we have and wanted to find a way to showcase this for our Newfields community and our guests,” said Dr. Colette Pierce Burnette, Newfields President and CEO.
