Modern West is pleased to collaborate with the St. George Museum of Art in traveling our exhibition Unbound: Art of the West.
Works from our MW artists will be on view at the Museum March 28-May 30, 2026.
Unbound: Art of the West reflects on Modern West’s history and a passion for forging new ground in an ever-evolving art community. Looking to represented modernists Louis Ribak and Beatrice Mandelman, who left behind their New York City lifestyle to pursue their work in the vast Western landscape, to the stable of Modern West’s innovative contemporary artists, the exhibition is inspired by works that push the parameters of what art has been and how it can move forward – it is ambitious, inspiring and unbound.
Featured artists include Shonto Begay, Michael Coles, Shalee Cooper, Angela Ellsworth, Phil Epp, Alexandra Fuller, Kiki Gaffney, Sheldon Harvey, Suzanne Hill, Jim Jacobs, Beatrice Mandelman, Ed Mell, Arlo Namingha, Stanley Natchez, Kevin Red Star, Louis Ribak, Billy Schenck, Woody Shepherd, Ben Steele, Eugene Tapahe and Mike Whiting.
Visit the St. George Museum of Art Monday-Saturday 10 AM-6 PM at 47 E 200 N, St. George, UT 84770.
