THE ORGANIZATION

The Wisconsin Visual Artists began in the year 1900 as the first professional association of artists in Wisconsin, and has continued for 121 years as an educational, supportive, and connective force for artists within the state. WVA offers a community and a support system to artists at any stage in their career. Because the organization is run by artists for artists, we are dedicated to the well-being and fair treatment of Wisconsin artists through the forging of creative partnerships, exhibition opportunities, monthly meetings, publications, programming, arts advocacy, and more.

WVA hosts many exhibitions each year, and partners with the Museum of Wisconsin Art to execute the fabulous Wisconsin Artist Biennial.

WVA is dedicated to:

Artists
The fair pay and treatment of artists
Quality of exhibitions & programming
Arts advocacy at the legislature level
Improving and beautifying our communities
Educating those around us about art
Provide networking opportunities

THE EXHIBITION

A juried, statewide exhibition accomplishes something that a themed exhibition does not. It captures a snapshot of the times, and gauges the temperature of a moment in our local history. What are Wisconsin artists saying in 2023? What kind of imagery, materials, and issues are at the forefront of our visual dialogue?

When we set out to organize an exhibition such as this, there is no way of knowing what kind of artwork will be submitted and chosen. What we do know is that it will be a group of artworks rich with diversity in both media and perspective.

It is our hope that your perspective will continue to be challenged, stretched, and massaged through Wisconsin’s visual art.
