At the Heart of it All
Artist Spotlight: Marie Watt
Marie Watt is a storyteller. Ideas of kinship, community, stewardship, tradition, and memory run through her work, as well as many mythologies: the Seneca Creation Story, Greco-Roman epics, and even pop culture sagas like Star Wars and Star Trek serve as inspiration.
Joyful, Art-Filled New Year’s Resolutions
We’ve reached the time of year when people begin to ask, “What’s your New Year’s resolution?” I usually just make up some sort of vague less-of-something resolution like “less phone time,” “stop eating sugar,” etc., but the resolution is usually forgotten as soon as the conversation is over.
Community Interview: Ana Martinez
This October, the Utah Museum of Fine Arts unveiled two reimagined galleries dedicated to the arts and cultures of Mexico, Central, and South America. The galleries were re-envisioned through a community-based curation process that centers living traditions, contemporary voices, and cultural relevance. This initiative, titled Transformación cultural: Nuestro pasado es presente (Cultural Transformation: Our Past is Present), was made possible by community work group members like Ana Martinez.
Upcoming Events
Inspiring Critical Dialogue and Illuminating the Role of Art in Our Lives
The UMFA is about more than objects—it’s about helping you connect in meaningful ways to great art and ideas, to the fascinating history of human culture and creativity, at your own pace.
No matter how young you are, what you know, or where you’re from, works of art are one-of-a-kind human creations that tell unique stories, evoke memories, inspire conversations, and open possibilities.
Find yourself here and explore the critical conversations waiting in the galleries.
