Haggerty Museum of Art on the Marquette campus has announced its lineup of summer exhibitions.
The season kicks off with "Haggerty Off-Campus: Crossroads Art on 27th and Wells," June 18-July 30, featuring window installations by Wisconsin artists Hans Gindlesberger, Rafael Francisco Salas, Michael Velliquette and Rina Yoon.
The themes of the window installations will reflect the exhibition's urban location and focus on neighborhood reinvention and revitalization. Crossroads aims to strengthen community pride and increase the visibility of the neighborhood. The exhibition is jointly sponsored by Avenues West Association and the Haggerty Museum of Art.
The opening of the installations – which reflect on the urban setting and neighborhood reinvention and revitalization – coincides with the annual Historic Concordia Neighbors Tour of Homes on Saturday June 18 and the closing is timed for the July 29-30 Gallery Night/Day. A group show featuring work by the Crossroads artists will beon view in the former Tower Theater building, 753 N. 27th St., 5-9 p.m. Friday, July 29 and 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, July 30.

Spanning the same dates is "Ruth Grotenrath & Schomer Lichtner Interior/Exterior," showcasing the careers of Milwaukee's "first couple of painting" via still life images by Ruth Grotenrath and scenes of Holy Hill by Schomer Lichtner, shown side by side.
Finally, "The Sacred Made Real," also June 22-Aug. 7, shows a selection of religious paintings spanning the 16th-20th centuries.
Among the Old Masters paintings, you'll see van Herp's "Joachim and Anna," Mostaert's "Entry of Christ into Jerusalem," "The Mystic Marriage of St. Catherine of Alexandria," by an artist in the circle of Lorenzo Sabatini, two paintings by Italian master Francesco Trevisani and Salvador Dalì's "Madonna of Port Lligat, 1949," a painting inspired by Piero della Francesca and Carlo Crivelli.
