Founded in 2014, Country GongBang (opens in a new tab) is South Korea’s first and only bluegrass band, pioneering a distinctive blend of contemporary bluegrass and K-pop sentiments. Singing in both English and Korean, the group crafts music that bridges cultural boundaries, carving a unique space in the global music scene.
In 2023, Country GongBang received the prestigious International Band Performance Grant from the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA), recognizing the band’s groundbreaking artistry. This honor led to Country GongBang’s historic 2024 US tour, where the group performed at renowned venues and festivals, including the legendary Grand Ole Opry in Nashville—making it the first-ever Korean band to grace that iconic stage.
The group’s lineup features Yebin Kim on mandolin and lead vocals, Hyunho Jang on banjo, Jongsu Yoon on fiddle, Sunjae Won on guitar, and Keeha Song on bass.

Gartner Auditorium, Suzanne and Paul Westlake Performing Arts Center
Gutsy and nuanced as a vocalist, Judith Hill (opens in a new tab) is an accomplished songwriter, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist—and one of the few musicians who can cite Elton John, Spike Lee, Prince, and Michael Jackson among those who have sought out her talent. One of the highest-profile background singers of her generation, she got her start in the early 2000s and established a solo career in the next decade built on a discography of increasingly refined and creative albums that include the Prince-produced Back in Time (2015), Golden Child (2018), Baby, I’m Hollywood! (2021), and her recent album, Letters from a Black Widow (2024).
Letters from a Black Widow delves into her struggles after the deaths of Michael Jackson and Prince, two iconic artists who selected Hill for collaborations. After Jackson’s sudden passing in June 2009, Hill sang lead on a number at Jackson’s memorial service, putting her on the worldwide map. Her rise to fame is explored in 20 Feet from Stardom, the Oscar-winning documentary film narrated by Morgan Freeman. Hill also wrote a stirring soundtrack to Spike Lee’s 2012 film, Red Hook Summer.

Final Weeks
Arts of the Maghreb: North African Textiles and Jewelry
Through Sunday, October 12, 2025
Arlene M. and Arthur S. Holden Gallery | Gallery 234
Free; No Ticket Required
This exhibition spotlights the rich artistic traditions of Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia during the late 1800s and the early 1900s, through a display of elaborate textiles and fine jewelry in the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art. These works introduce the specialized skills of North African artists, both Amazigh (Berber) and Arab, Muslim and Jewish, and the diverse aesthetics of their multifaceted communities. The CMA’s founder J. H. Wade II began forming the collection during his personal travels across the region, and many works are on view for the very first time.
This exhibition is made possible with support from the Malcolm E. Kenney Curatorial Research Fund and Anne T. and Donald F. Palmer.
Through Sunday, October 19, 2025
Julia and Larry Pollock Focus Gallery | Gallery 010
Free; No Ticket Required
In the early 1900s, as Cleveland experienced rapid economic growth and the expansion of its iron and steel industries, Hungarian ornamental blacksmith Martin Rose moved to the city and founded Rose Iron Works. It soon became one of the leading manufacturers of decorative metalwork in the United States. Trained in Budapest and Vienna in the Art Nouveau tradition, Rose was interested in artistic and technological innovations. In 1925, a groundbreaking international exhibition in Paris presented modern decorative arts—a style that later became known as Art Deco. Rose’s compatriot and a designer active in Paris, Paul Fehér joined the Rose company in Cleveland a few years later. Their artistic collaboration resulted in some of the best Art Deco ironwork in the country, including the celebrated Muse with Violin Screen (1930), now in the CMA’s collection. This exhibition explores Rose’s transition from Art Nouveau to Art Deco, focuses on his 1930s commissions, and places his work in the European context. It also emphasizes the importance of Rose Iron Works, a family-run Cleveland company that for 120 years has been adorning some of the city’s most notable buildings.
Major support is provided by the Malcolm E. Kenney Curatorial Research Fund. Additional support is provided by the Simon Family Foundation, a supporting foundation of the Jewish Federation of Cleveland.

Lunchtime Lecture
Arrested Gestures: Embracing Mystery in Edmonia Lewis’s “Indian Combat”
Tuesday, October 7, 2025, 12:00–1:00 p.m.
Gartner Auditorium, Suzanne and Paul Westlake Performing Arts Center
Speaker: Elizabeth Spear, Mellon Postdoctoral Fellow in Art History Leadership
Those acquainted with the CMA’s collection of American art may be familiar with Edmonia Lewis’s Indian Combat (1868), which the artist, who studied at Oberlin College, completed two years after moving to Rome. With its spiraling composition and gracefully interlocking figures, Indian Combat immediately calls to mind famous examples of Italian Mannerism and may also quote from sculptural precedents in Classical antiquity and the Baroque period. But what other stories did the artist embed in this artwork, and how did it find its way to Cleveland more than a century after her death? This talk examines what is known about Lewis and her work and probes some of the mysteries she left behind in this unique and captivating sculpture.

This talk also explores how, in the 1960s, local priests, priestesses, and artists pushed back by promoting their own traditions and beliefs. Dr. Teriba demonstrates how these local religious leaders and artists created new masquerades, ideas of immortality, and even new words—drawing inspiration from the European-style buildings introduced by the settlers.

Refocusing Photography: China at the Millennium
Through Sunday, November 16, 2025
Mark Schwartz and Bettina Katz Photography Galleries | Gallery 230
Free; No Ticket Required
From 1949 to 1978, photography in the People’s Republic of China was reserved for governmental propaganda: Its function was to present an idealized image of life under Chairman Mao and communist rule. In 1978, as China opened to global trade and Western societies, photography as documentation, art, and personal expression experienced a sudden awakening. Personal photographic societies formed, art schools began teaching photography, and information on Western contemporary art became available.
In the late 1990s, a new generation of Chinese artists, many initially trained as painters, revolted against traditional academic definitions of photography. Building on the work done in the previous decades by Western artists, they dissolved the boundaries between photography, performance art, conceptual art, and installation. In so doing, they brought photography into the foreground in Chinese contemporary art. This exhibition presents works from the museum’s collection by eight key artists from that generation.
Born between 1962 and 1969, these artists grew up during the Cultural Revolution (1966–76), when conformity was required and past intellectual and artistic products—whether artistic, family history, or documentary—were banned and destroyed. They also experienced the cultural vacuum that followed this erasure. As adults, these artists lived in a radically different China—newly prosperous, individualistic, and consumerist. They helped develop a new visual idiom, producing artworks that addressed their country’s recent history, its swift societal transformation, and their own resultant shift in identity as Chinese.
This exhibition is made possible with support from the Seven Five Fund.
Practice and Play in Japanese Art
Through Sunday, November 30, 2025
Kelvin and Eleanor Smith Foundation Japanese Art Gallery | Gallery 235A
Free; No Ticket Required
From the 1200s to the 1800s, developing a balanced set of military (bu, 武) and cultural (bun, 文) skills was considered important for the elites of Japan’s warrior class. The artworks in this gallery relate to these divergent yet complementary pursuits. Horse riding and falconry were among the martial arts, along with archery. Poetry competitions tested people’s ability to compose verse on the spot, and incense games challenged them to identify particular scents. The practices of calligraphy, music, painting, and games of strategy, often informed by Chinese precedents, provided multiple paths to personal cultivation and community.

Indian Painting of the 1500s: Continuities and Transformations
Through January 11, 2026
Gallery 242B
Free; No Ticket Required
When the 1500s began, the dominant style of Indian painting was flat and abstract with a limited, mainly primary color palette. By the 1520s, a new style emerged with greater narrative complexities and dramatic energy that was to be foundational for later developments. Concurrently, some artists began working in the pastel palette and with delicate motifs reinterpreted from Persian art.
Then, around 1560, with the exuberant patronage of the third Mughal emperor Akbar (born 1542, reigned 1556–1605), artists from different parts of the empire and trained in a variety of Indian styles came together in a new imperial painting workshop. The workshop was led by Persian masters brought from the imperial court in Iran. The formation of Mughal painting shaped by Akbar’s taste for drama and realism had a lasting impact on the cultural life of India. With its naturalism and vibrant compositions, the revolutionary new style was distinct from its predecessors, both Indian and Persian. The paintings in this gallery trace the dramatic changes that occurred during the 1500s alongside compositions that artists chose to retain and reinvent. Central to this story is a manuscript of the Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot), an illustrated collection of fables made for Akbar around 1560–65 now in the Cleveland Museum of Art.
In Vino Veritas (In Wine, Truth)
Through Sunday, January 11, 2026
James and Hanna Bartlett Prints and Drawings | Galleries 101A–B
Free; No Ticket Required
For millennia, wine has played a significant role not only in the human diet but also in cultural myths, rituals, and festivities. As a result, wine—its ingredients, making, drinking, and effects on the human body and mind—has been a constant muse for artistic creation. The exhibition In Vino Veritas (In Wine, Truth), a phrase coined by the Roman polymath Pliny the Elder, celebrates the presence and meaning of wine in prints, drawings, textiles, and objects made in Europe between 1450 and 1800. Drawn from the museum’s collection, more than 70 works by artists from throughout Europe explore wine’s myths, symbols, and stories. These images reveal how diverse cultures and religions ascribed meaning and transformational properties to the so-called nectar of the gods.
The ancient Greeks believed that the god Dionysus (in Rome, Bacchus) lived within wine: to drink wine was to partake of the god’s power. Fascinated by ancient culture, Italian Renaissance artists, such as Andrea Mantegna and Raphael, imagined scenes of boisterous festivals, or bacchanalia, along with the exploits of Bacchus and his coterie of satyrs, nymphs, and fauns. In Northern Europe, Pieter Bruegel the Elder, and later Jean-Honoré Fragonard, transformed bacchanalia into raucous peasant festivals and sensuous garden parties fueled by wine, at times tinged with moral judgment. Simultaneously, wine played a critical allegorical role in images made within the Judeo-Christian tradition. The Old Testament and Hebrew Bible traced wine’s invention to Noah. Numerous stories from these texts, portrayed by Lucas van Leyden and others, leveraged wine as an important plot element, with the ability to unify and enlighten, or to incapacitate and deceive. Many artists, such as Albrecht Dürer, used wine, grapes, and the vine to symbolize the Catholic rite of the Eucharist and its origin in Christ’s Last Supper. Throughout the exhibition, wine appears in scenes of devotion, harvest, celebration, music making, and transgression, signaling community cohesion as well as the pleasures—and hazards—of surrendering to one’s senses

Eleanor Antin’s Nurse and Hijackers
Through Sunday, January 11, 2026
224B Video
Free; No Ticket Required
In this video, Eleanor Antin draws on the form of popular disaster movies to explore history, contemporary culture, and identity from a feminist perspective. The narrative—a hijacking of a nurse’s plane on its way to Saint-Tropez, France—is enacted by paper dolls, whose voices and gestures are performed by the artist. This unfolds aboard a handcrafted set also made by the artist. Using recognizable styles from film and television of the time, Antin’s feature-length narrative invites viewers to consider the ways that contemporary international politics are represented in the media.
British Portrait Miniatures: Tokens of Love and Loss
Through Sunday, February 15, 2026
Ellen and Bruce Mavec Gallery | Gallery 203B
Free; No Ticket Required
Exchanged as personal mementos or as signs of political allegiance, portrait miniatures first appeared in the French and English courts of the 1520s. Evolved from the art of medieval illuminated manuscripts, miniatures provided a less expensive and more personal alternative to traditional full-scale portraiture. Portrait miniatures were portable luxury objects treasured by their owners both for the cherished portrait and the precious materials from which they were crafted. These might include gold, enamel, diamonds, and locks of human hair.
Their small scale and the fact that people often wore them as jewelry and carried them on their person conveys a different type of intimacy than larger scale portraits. Sitters are often depicted more informally and with the gaze of a particular loved one in mind. Miniatures remained popular for nearly three centuries. The advent of photography in 1839 offered a more cost-effective method of capturing a keepsake likeness, and the portrait miniature faded from fashion.
Juxtaposition and Juncture in Korean Modern and Contemporary Art
Through April 1, 2026
Korea Foundation Gallery | Gallery 236
Free; No Ticket Required
The term “juxtaposition” here refers to the side-by-side placement of two or more artworks that are significantly different from one another. Featuring Korean modern and contemporary objects that the CMA has collected over the past 15 years, this thematic exhibition juxtaposes them to create an exciting juncture of connections through their visual and material contrasts.
While the selected works were created by Korean artists from diverse backgrounds and different generations, they make a poignant meeting place illustrating how objects from the past inspired contemporary artists to create new experiences and artistic expressions.
Adorning Ritual: Jewish Ceremonial Art from the Jewish Museum, New York
Through Sunday, May 10, 2026
Various Galleries
Free; No Ticket Required
The Cleveland Museum of Art houses an encyclopedic collection, giving visitors valuable insights and perspectives into the lives and cultures of people around the world and throughout time. To enhance its permanent collection and to more fully represent the stories and objects important to our communities, the museum is displaying art on loan from the Jewish Museum, New York, in six galleries.
Most of the works are ritual objects relating to Judaism or the lives of Jewish people, from silver Torah finials to an inlaid marble panel commemorating a marriage. The objects have been placed in context with other works of the same time or region, allowing a fuller narrative to unfold. As you encounter these objects in the galleries, we invite you to consider their relationships to the other works in these spaces.
In addition to the loans from the Jewish Museum, two examples of Jewish ceremonial art from local collections are on display in two additional galleries: an etrog box recently acquired by the Cleveland Museum of Art and a miniature Torah ark on loan from the Mishkan Or Museum of Jewish Cultures in Beachwood, Ohio.
Principal support is provided by Rebecca and David Heller. Additional support is provided by Michael Frank and the late Pat Snyder, Richard A. Horvitz and Erica Hartman-Horvitz, Mr. and Mrs. David D. Kahan, and the Simon Family Foundation, a supporting foundation of the Jewish Federation of Cleveland.
Pintoricchio Magnified: An Immersive Conservation Experience
Through Sunday, August 23, 2026
Gallery 115
Free; No Ticket Required
Through a digital immersive experience, step into the conservation studio and get a behind-the-scenes look at the materials and techniques conservators use to preserve paintings in the CMA collection.
For almost 50 years, Pintoricchio’s Virgin and Child (c. 1490–1500) was in storage at the CMA, its last original layers of blue paint hidden beneath a mask of restoration treatments undertaken in the 1900s. Although considered one of the most significant paintings within the early Italian collection, its complicated restoration history and physical state rendered it largely unexhibitable.
In the most recent conservation treatment, original paint layers were revealed, allowing unparalleled access to Pintoricchio’s original composition, freed from past interventions. This allowed conservators to embark on the rediscovery and reexamination of one of the more damaged paintings within the CMA collection and use cutting-edge technologies to better understand the materials and techniques used by the artist. Through a large digital display, visitors can traverse the layers of the painting and its conservation treatment, examining changing details as if magnified under a microscope.
This exhibition is made possible with support from Jared and Linda Buono Chaney and Carl M. Jenks.
All activities of the Eric T. and Jane Baker Nord Family Conservation Suite are underwritten by the CMA Fund for Conservation.
All digital innovation and technology initiatives at the Cleveland Museum of Art are underwritten by the CMA Digital Innovation Fund.
