The Great Plains Art Museum will host Amanda Maciuba as the 2025 Elizabeth Rubendall Artist in Residence from April 8-19.
Maciuba’s work is an exploration of the visible and invisible marks of human hands on the landscape. Her practice investigates human relationships with the environment over time, including the impacts of human-driven climate change.
During her residency, Maciuba will create an artwork that will become part of the museum’s permanent collection. Visitors are encouraged to see the artist in action in the lower-level Elizabeth Rubendall Artist in Residence Studio and Education Lab during the museum’s public hours. Please note the artist may be visiting classes or be elsewhere on campus during the day. Visitors can call the front desk at 402-472-6220 to check on the artist’s schedule.
Bodies of water often act as anchors for Maciuba’s creative investigation. Her accompanying solo exhibition, “Watershed,” includes prints, artist’s books and installations that consider how water shapes human life and how human actions impact river environments. The exhibition runs from April 4 through Sept. 20 at the museum.
Born and raised in the Buffalo, New York, area, Maciuba graduated from the University at Buffalo with a degree in visual studies. She has a Master of Fine Arts in printmaking and a Certificate of Book Arts from the University of Iowa. Maciuba shows her work regularly throughout the United States and has participated in artist residencies at the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in Chase County, Kansas; Fire Island National Seashore in Suffolk County, New York; Lawrence (Kansas) Arts Center; Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts in Nebraska City; Kathmandu International Artist Residency in Nepal; and Haystack Open Studio Residency in Deer Isle, Maine. She currently teaches printmaking, drawing and book arts at Mount Holyoke College in western Massachusetts.
Since its inception in 2006, the Elizabeth Rubendall Foundation has funded the Artist in Residence Program, which creates opportunities for museum visitors and school groups to witness an artist in action. To schedule a group tour, email Alison Cloet at acloet3@unl.edu.
The Great Plains Art Museum, 1155 Q St., is open to the public 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Admission is free.
