We go "Beyond Mysticism" at SAM's modern art exhibition

Seattle Now

About this episode

In 1953, Life Magazine published a widely read story titled “Mystic Painters of the Northwest.” It put Seattle in the spotlight as a creative hub of modernist art. A new exhibition at Seattle Art Museum explores modernist art in the Northwest, beyond the major artists. Theresa Papanikolas curated “Beyond Mysticism: The Modern Northwest.” We met recently at the museum to get a tour of the exhibition.
