Exhibition - Baker Artist Awards

The 2025 Baker Artist Awards exhibition at the BMA showcases the work of five artists: 2019 winner Selin Balci, 2023 winners Oletha DeVane and Jordan Tierney, and 2024 winners Stephen Towns and Kelley Bell. These artists-who span media, style, and generations-are each grounded in histories and stories related to spirituality, place, and identity deeply connected to the Baltimore region, its ecology, and people. The themes and narratives presented in this group exhibition also resonate with the BMA’s Turn Again to the Earth initiative.
