Contemporary Texas Artists: Abstraction Here & Now

October 8 - December 23, 2022
Art Museum of Southeast Texas, Beaumont, TX

The Art Museum of Southeast Texas is proud to present, Contemporary Texas Women Artists: Abstraction Here and Now, as its fall 2022 exhibition. This group exhibition showcases 11 women artists working in abstraction and living within a 200-mile radius of Beaumont. The exhibition aims to demonstrate that abstraction is still a creative form of art-making and that it is actively being used by Texas artists living not far from Southeast Texas. Artists in this exhibition include:

Erika Alonso, Adela Andea, Claire Ankenman, Emma Balder, Pat Colville, Orna Feinstein, Liz Gates, Abhidnya Ghuge, Bethany Johnson, Melinda Laszczynski, Leila McConnell

These 11 artists work in a wide range of mediums to create abstracted art that speaks about nature, light, motherhood and the human condition. Many of these artists work in 2-D and 3- D, and this exhibition includes multiple works by each artist. Two site-specific installations were created specifically for AMSET by artists Adela Andea and Abhidnya Ghuge.
