Self/Concept brings together eight local artists who engage with personal identity as it may relate to race, gender, religion, and class. They critically represent themselves through a wide range of media, from performance to print, painting, and photography.

On March 3 Sara Suppan, exhibition curator and MCAD Guerrilla Girl intern, will join Megan Johnston, an original instigator of the Guerrilla Girls Twin Cities Takeover and executive director of the Rochester Art Center, and other invited artists to discuss understandings of selfhood in light of race and gender issues.

In the Press

This exhibition is organized as part of the Guerrilla Girls Twin Cities Takeover. From January to March 2016 the Takeover will include over thirty arts and cultural organizations in Minneapolis/St. Paul and surrounding cities. From small non-profit art centers to major cultural institutions in the region, these partners will be highlighting gender and race inequalities, taking on stereotypes and hypocrisies, and promoting artistic expression by the often overlooked and underrepresented. Join the collective roar for change.
