The Portland Art Museum received a $609,441 Project Grant award from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) under the Museums for America (CFDA 45.301) program. The award will fund the creation of a retrospective exhibition on the modernist painter and printmaker Yoshida Chizuko (1924-2017). The exhibition will feature early paintings, sketches, rare monotypes, woodblock prints, zinc-plate mixed media prints, as well as archival materials such as diaries, photographs, musical records, and past exhibition materials. The project will also include a series of community-focused public programs and the publication of a catalog to provide historical context on the artist's life and work. This award supports the museum's mission to engage and enrich diverse communities through the presentation, interpretation, and conservation of art.
