Anchorage - 427 D Street - AK 99501
The International Gallery of Contemporary Art (IGCA) stands as a dynamic hub for innovative and interdisciplinary art, offering a platform where bold ideas, creative experimentation, and meaningful dialogue converge. Located in Anchorage, Alaska, IGCA has long served as a vital meeting point for artists and audiences who seek out the new, the challenging, and the thought-provoking in contemporary visual culture.

Founded with a mission to champion emerging and experimental work, IGCA provides a space where risk-taking is not just welcomed, but encouraged. The gallery showcases a wide range of media and artistic disciplines, including installation, performance, mixed media, and digital art, often blurring the boundaries between traditional forms. This openness has made it a vital space for both local and visiting artists to push their practices in new and unexpected directions.

IGCA’s exhibitions often highlight underrepresented voices and address current social, political, and environmental themes, creating a space for conversations that extend far beyond the gallery walls. Its programming invites the community into the creative process through artist talks, workshops, and collaborative events, fostering a sense of connection and shared inquiry.

As a nonprofit, artist-driven organization, IGCA operates with a deep commitment to supporting artistic freedom and exploration. The gallery continually seeks to present work that sparks curiosity, challenges perceptions, and inspires both artists and audiences to engage more deeply with the world around them.

By offering a venue for fearless creative expression, The International Gallery of Contemporary Art plays a crucial role in shaping the cultural landscape of Anchorage and the broader region. It remains a space where contemporary art can thrive—unbounded, diverse, and alive with the potential for discovery.

Through her raw and poetic lens, F.

The series follows the artist herself and the significant women in her life — friends, sisters, mothers, confidantes — each portrait resonating with emotional honesty and magnetic presence. Within these images lies a brutal tenderness: a confrontation with identity, legacy, and the turbulent beauty of emerging womanhood.
