Great Rivers Biennial featuring new work by Brandon Anschultz, Carlie Trosclair, and Cayce ZavagliaThe Great Rivers Biennial Arts Award Program identifies talented emerging and mid-career artists working in the greater St. Louis metropolitan area, providing them with a $20,000 honorarium and a major exhibition at CAM.
       
Katharina Fritsch: Postcards
A focused selection of five large-scale postcard sculptures by celebrated German artist Katharina Fritsch, Postcards features works made by enlarging and silkscreening images originally found on travel postcards onto sheets of shaped plastic. By transforming small-scale souvenirs into monumental sculpture, imagery that was once whimsical and benign becomes surreal and disquieting.
       
Brenna Youngblood: Loss Prevention
 oss Prevention features a selection of new and earlier multimedia paintings. Often combining paper and acrylic collage with images of everyday objects, Youngblood juxtaposes the figure with the abstract, raising questions of what is familiar versus what is unknown.
