A new art exhibition, "For Maria," opens at the Frances Lehman Loeb Art Center at Vassar College and will run Aug. 21–Jan. 25. This exhibition honors Maria Martinez as both an artistic innovator and a guiding presence for future generations, and it brings together three of Rose B. Simpson’s preliminary drawings for the new campus sculpture, "Seed," a pair of lithographs of her restored and painted ’85 El Camino titled "Maria," and black-on-black pottery by Tewa artists Maria and Julian Martinez. It highlights the shared Pueblo lineage between the two artists, emphasizing matrilineal knowledge, clay-based practices, and design elements drawn from the surrounding landscape.
