Art History Gallery
At UW-Milwaukee
This
small gallery located in UWM's Mitchell Hall is perhaps the finest link that
the Eastside has to Milwaukee's
bygone eras. With a strong focus on he preservation if local historical
artworks, UWM's Art History Gallery walls are usually flush with work from
local artists, if not historians, with a keen eye for highlighting the changing
face of Milwaukee through the artistic renderings of the city's many landmarks.
Several collections and exhibitions are presented each semester and the gallery also devotes the space to the work of upper-level students from the university's art department. Like most of the galleries at UWM the walls are of a stark white or natural tone. This lack of visual flair in regard to the gallery's design aesthetics assures that the focus stays squarely on the exhibits being displayed.
UWM’s Art History Gallery’s hours vary by exhibition and are flexible for small touring groups of students or the public.
