Holly Lane—Not Enough Time to Love the World, showcases a range of Lane’s work garnered from the previous ten-plus years of a multi-decade career. As an art undergraduate, she began considering the relationship of frame to picture. She has since reimagined it into a new art form of her own invention, in which each component—painting and frame—is fundamental to the work as a whole.

In partnership with Local Color, we’ve invited muralist Tomas ‘Wisper’ Talamantes into the museum for a dynamic look into his creative process. Wisper will create an original mural at the museum, exploring the untold stories, people, events, and variety of cultures that have contributed to Los Gatos and its surrounding areas. During three live sessions, visitors will enjoy the special opportunity to see Wisper in action and learn about his creative process and philosophy. Alongside the developing mural, visitors can see photographs of the artist’s past work, Freedom, as documented by photographer Buggsy Malone

NUMU is collaborating with the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and San Jose State University on this art exhibition about the vitality of the Muwekma, featuring photography of tribal members by their Tribal Photographer Kike Arnal. The project will promote deeper understanding of local indigenous art, culture, history, and contemporary issues in Los Gatos and the greater Bay Area, and preserve and share knowledge about critical issues of federal recognition that the Muwekma Ohlone continue to fight for.

In her series Marie Cameron | Critical Masses, A Very Low Tide (June 17—Oct 23), Los Gatos artist Marie Cameron presents views of human impact on our delicate ecosystem, with a series of 9 pieces that explode with color, dense pattern, and familiar objects colliding with natural elements. For this exhibition Cameron adds 3 new pieces to the growing series that reminds the viewer of the fragile, causal relationships that affect the fate of our shared ecosystems.
