Dalzotto, who was instrumental in the formation of Bemidji State University's Department of Visual Arts, was a master printmaker and Fulbright Scholar who studied in Europe and settled in Bemidji. He taught art and art history at the university until his retirement in 1985.
"For more than 50 years, he studied, created and produced works of art with the desire of being able to truly see," the release said.
Dalzotto remained in Bemidji after retirement, producing works in his home studio until the late 1990s. He passed away in 2009.
The exhibit will run through July 26.
