Exhibiting Artists

Kevin Henkes

Kevin Henkes was born in 1960 in Racine, Wisconsin, and during his childhood often visited the local art museum—the Charles A. Wustum Museum of Fine Arts. Henkes was greatly inspired by these visits and by reading his favorite books. As a young child, he pored over books and was intrigued by their authors and illustrators but says, “I never imagined that one day I would be one myself.”
 

Melanie Herzog

Melanie Herzog is professor of art history at Edgewood College in Madison. She holds an MFA in ceramics and a PhD in art history from the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Herzog teaches, publishes, and lectures widely on North American art and visual culture.

Erica Hess

Erica Hess lives and works in Appleton. She received her M.F.A at UW-Madison, working in printmaking, fibers, and sculpture. She is a co-founder of the Madison collective printmaking space, Polka Press, as well as co-owner of Hello! Loom, a company that creates laser cut looms for easy, convenient, and portable weaving. 

Karen Ann Hoffman

Karen Ann Hoffman is a Haudenosaunee raised beader from Stevens Point. A citizen of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, she creates objects of great beauty and cultural significance that reflect Haudenosaunee understandings and honor generational legacies.

Tom Hollenback

Like the best artists of any era, Tom Hollenback creates art that subtly transforms the perceptions of the viewer. His sculpture, no matter where it is installed, immediately defines and underscores the space it inhabits, thus changing the experience of being in that situation. By means of edge and angle, translucency and reflection, boundary and interface, Hollenback somehow bends the surroundings to the authority of his sculpture.

Terri Hom

Terri Hom is a member of Lac Courte Oreilles (LCO) Band of Lake Superior Chippewa Indians, and lives on the reservation in northern Wisconsin. Born in Minneapolis, she was raised in Wisconsin. Currently, she is doing an apprenticeship in birchbark and quillwork art with Pat Kruse, a 2018 Native Arts and Cultures Foundation Mentor Fellow.

Jon Horvath

Jon Horvath’s finely distilled photographs of everyday items evoke a meditative hush. His ongoing series, “Wide-Eyed,” embraces what he calls “photographic wandering,” exploring the complexity and intangible essence of the world around us. Training his lens on everything from clouds and abandoned vehicles to traffic cones and brooms, he creates pictures with a surreal quality of stillness, and often arranges them to spark surprising connections between the images.
