CRMA Past Exhibitions
For more than a century, the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art has been presenting exhibitions of local and national importance. Presenting ten to fifteen exhibitions each year, the CRMA has presented well over 1,000 exhibitions in its rich 125-year-history. Important solo and group exhibitions of artists such as Jonas Lie (1926), Grandma Moses (1952), and Henri Matisse (2001), and art movements such as African-American Art (1931), Modern Painting (1950), and German Expressionist Prints (2000), are just a few of the many exhibitions we have presented in the past. Below, find a sampling of our more-recent exhibitions.
