National Artist Call for Juried Art Exhibition at Minneapolis Institute of Art, Allegories of a Better World

Allegories of a Better World Submission Deadline: May 15th

SAINT PAUL, MN, UNITED STATES, April 30, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Artists nationwide are invited to submit original works to a juried exhibition, Allegories of a Better World, taking place at Minneapolis Institute of Art on June 28. The submission deadline is May 15. Submissions should examine themes such as: virtue and moral courage; nobility beyond class or status; truth, justice, and liberation; reconstruction and unlearning; memory, history, and inherited systems; cultural healing and collective imagination; and more.

This exhibit is happening in conjunction with the premiere of documentary film, “The Making of America.” Directed by Monique Linder, and produced by OMG Studios in partnership with Minnesota Humanities Center, the film explores how Enlightenment-era systems of knowledge—art, science, architecture, and cartography—produced enduring frameworks for racial slavery, territorial extraction, and Indigenous dispossession in what became the United States of America. Exhibition submissions may be featured in the film.

"Art is history. We must find the moral courage to confront our history and create a better world that our children will inherit."
Monique Linder, Film Director at OMG Studios
