Really Free: The Radical Art of Nellie Mae Rowe is the first major exhibition in over two decades to focus on Rowe’s work, highlighting her late-in-life artistic resurgence as an act of self-liberation. Living in Georgia, she transformed her home into a vibrant art space filled with found-object creations and drawings. The exhibition explores her evolution from modest sketches to intricate compositions, while connecting her drawings to the immersive environment she created at her “Playhouse.”
