First launched as a pop-up exhibition in 2018 at Brick, Greater Than 40 returns to Blue Star Arts Complex’s space 136 opening January 2nd and 3rd, running through January 16.
Curated by Vikky Jones and Ann Enzminger, Greater Than 40 celebrates the power, creativity, and resilience of women artists over 40, challenging the notion that artistic innovation belongs exclusively to the young. Too often, society measures worth by age, as seen in the countless “40 under 40” lists that glorify youth as the pinnacle of achievement. This show flips that script, showcasing the boundary-pushing work of women whose best years are not behind them—but in front of us, right now.
Greater Than 40 is a declaration that the true markers of innovative art are vision, passion, and persistence—qualities that only deepen with time. We hope to feature work that spans a range of disciplines, mediums, and themes, unified by a fierce commitment to authenticity and unapologetic self-expression. This is more than an art show; it’s a retort, a celebration, and a reminder that age is an asset, not a limitation.
Featuring over 30 Texas-based women artists.
