Kaddatz Galleries Summer Exhibitions
Beck Invitational | Charles Beck Gallery
Mary Guttormson Erickson: 40 Acres for 40 Years | Studio K
July 7–August 15, 2026 | Kaddatz Galleries, Fergus Falls, MN
Kaddatz Galleries presents two compelling exhibitions celebrating the work of regional artists and the artistic legacy of west central Minnesota.
In the Charles Beck Gallery, the inaugural Beck Invitational brings together a group of regional artists in honor of the enduring legacy of Charles Beck, one of the region's most influential artists. This biennial exhibition celebrates Beck's lasting impact while showcasing contemporary work inspired by the creativity, craftsmanship, and spirit of the area.
In the Studio K Gallery, Mary Guttormson Erickson: 40 Acres for 40 Years highlights four decades of artistic exploration inspired by the landscape, rhythms, and enduring beauty of the artist's forty-acre homestead. Through richly layered paintings, Erickson reflects on the deep connection between place, nature, and the passage of time.
An Opening Reception for both exhibitions will be held on Thursday, July 16, from 5:00–7:00 PM, offering visitors an opportunity to meet the artists and celebrate the opening of these summer exhibitions.
