Oceanside Museum of Art (OMA) and San Diego History Center are thrilled to present "Changing Terrain: Regional Artists Interpret Our Landscape," bringing together contemporary artists from Southern California and Baja to explore a region in constant transformation. Inspired by the exhibition presented at OMA and SDHC in 2013, this group exhibition revisits the evolving field of landscape art by Southern California-based artists more than a decade later and includes 11 artists from the original 2013 exhibition.

Work by a distinguished set of invited artists is showcased along with exceptional works identified through a regional open call, highlighting the diversity of artistic voices redefining the landscape genre. Changing Terrain offers fresh perspectives on landscape, revealing how environment, culture, history, and community shape our evolving sense of place. Together, these works capture the beauty, complexity, and resilience of a border region where natural and human histories continually intersect.

The exhibition opens to the public at the Oceanside Museum of Art and the San Diego History Center in Balboa Park on August 22.

Curatorial Advisory Committee: Johnny Bear Contreras (sculptor and Kumeyaay public artist), Gabriel Boils Teran (visual artist and cultural agent), Katie Dolgov (Director of Exhibitions and Collections at OMA), and Tina Zarpour (Vice President of Community Engagement, Education & Collections at SDHC)
