Madison artist-activists Mary Kay Neumann and Helen Klebesadel have collaborated on 15 color-saturated paintings that ask us to stop, pause and consider the things in nature we love that we are losing as a result of pollution and climate change. Their elegant, flowing and expressionist flowers, birds, plants and burning fields speak powerfully to the threat to our planet’s biodiversity, in an exhibit that is not only a testament to beauty from a feminist perspective but an opportunity to join in the fight for a solution.
Through Sept. 2.
