Something magnifique is en route! 🇫🇷
“Monet to Matisse: French Moderns, 1850–1950” presented by @pncbank opens at the BMA in less than three months!!
Opening January 30, this exhibition will transport you to France at a time of radical change—when bold ideas reshaped culture, politics, and the very definition of art.

And for the first time, the Birmingham Museum of Art has nearly doubled the original exhibition with works from our own world-class collection, offering an even deeper look at this groundbreaking moment in art history.

Come check out this #WorkOfTheWeek on your next visit to the BMA!
Melanie Yazzie’s monoprint “Crossing Points” reflects her layered practice and draws upon imagery rooted in her Diné heritage. Bringing together symbols of cultural and geographic significance, Yazzie explores how memory is shaped by place and experience.
Her work emphasizes the diversity of Indigenous peoples, underscoring that each community carries its own histories and stories. Central to Yazzie’s practice is the belief that “we can all learn from each other.” Through the continued wavy line and stacked stones, she visualizes how knowledge and lived experiences are interconnected, accumulating and building over time.
This #WorkOfTheWeek can be found in the exhibition “Marks of Intention,” located in the Pizitz gallery. Admission is FREE!

Drop by the Museum for a midday ArtBreak with Viola Ratcliffe as she explores the presence of surreal and sacred imagery in our "Wall to Wall" installation.
Wednesday, June 3, 12–12:30pm
Free registration on our website
Using Antoine Williams’s mural "The Harvesters" as a point of departure, Ratcliff examines how Black artists create space for spiritual imagination and interior worlds through their practice. Drawing from Zora Neale Hurston’s reflections on Mother Catherine Seals, she weaves connections to the work and legacies of Joe Minter, Harriet Powers, Erin Mitchell, and the writings of Imani Perry.

After twenty years at the Birmingham Museum of Art, including nearly a decade as The R. Hugh Daniel Director and CEO, Graham C. Boettcher, Ph.D., has been appointed Director and CEO of the @norman_rockwell_museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts.
During his tenure, Graham helped shape the BMA into a more dynamic, ambitious, and community-centered institution. He led the Museum through a period of sustained growth, expanding its national profile through acclaimed exhibitions, strengthening the collection, and deepening engagement with audiences across Birmingham and beyond.
Under Graham’s leadership, the BMA advanced initiatives in education, accessibility, and public programming while fostering meaningful partnerships throughout the community. His vision and scholarship helped position the Museum as both a leading cultural institution and a welcoming space for all who visit.
The BMA’s Board has appointed Chantal Drake, the James Milton and Sallie R. Johnson Deputy Director, to serve as Interim Director and CEO beginning August 1, 2026. Since joining the Museum in 2023, Chantal has provided substantive oversight across all areas of the Museum’s operations and brings extensive leadership experience in museum management, development, communications, and community engagement. Her background and collaborative leadership will help ensure a seamless transition as the Museum continues advancing its mission.
The Board has initiated plans for a national search for the Museum’s next Director and CEO. Graham will continue in his role through July 31, working closely with board leadership and staff to support a smooth and thoughtful transition.
The Birmingham Museum of Art is deeply grateful to Graham for his decades of leadership and service to the Museum and the City of Birmingham.

Mark your calendars! We have a new exhibition opening THIS WEEKEND!
The BMA's newest exhibition, "Disruption!," invites viewers to witness all forms of disruption by presenting artworks that foreground engagement that actively invokes emotion and inquisitiveness.
Disruption is a prominent practice that challenges peoples’ initial expectations of art and the rules that answer basic questions like “what is art?” and “what can art do?” It invites viewers to look beyond their preconceived notions and scratch beneath the surface to reveal deeper meaning.
The concept of disruption can take many forms, including experimenting with new materials and techniques of expression, visually interrupting the subject of an artwork, and using art as a form of protest to challenge historical narratives.
Stop by this Saturday to be one of the first to see this new (FREE) exhibition!
