Vesterheim invites everyone to an opening reception for the exhibit Christian Midjo: Choose Your Own Artventure  on November 1, 2018, from 4:00-6:00 p.m., with a gallery talk by Zach Row-Heyveld, Vesterheim’s Exhibitions Manager at 5:00 p.m. The event is free and refreshments will be served.

The exhibit is sponsored by Greg and Karen Bruening of Decorah, and runs through April 21, 2019.

Christian Midjo has one of the most distinctive styles of all of the artists in Vesterheim’s collection. His paintings include lush nature scenes and voluptuous physical forms. In this exhibit visitors get to choose their own “artventure” though several gallery “tours” that present different perspectives on Midjo’s paintings.
