The feminist artist received an international award from Anderson Ranch. Plus, new top staff at university museums, and the V&A goes to the zoo.
Hot off the heels of last year’s biopic, feminist painter and photographer Marilyn Minter is back in the spotlight as the recipient of the 2026 International Artist Award from the Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass, Colorado.
