Rock this country.

• Position: Museums Today - "Shania Twain: Rock This Country" exhibition

Shania Twain has sold more albums than any other female country artist in history. No wonder she was asked to perform at halftime of Super Bowl XXXVII.

THE EXHIBIT "Shania Twain: Rock This Country" examines the life and career of the five-time Grammy Award winner, following the evolution of Twain's career from her early days performing in Canadian bars to her recent appearance at the Stagecoach Festival in California.

With more than 90,000,000 albums sold worldwide and U.S. sales topping 35,000,000, Twain remains the top-selling female country artist of all time. She ushered in a new era of empowerment for women in country music with hits such as "That Don't Impress Me Much," "You're Still the One," and "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!," to name a few--as well as the albums "Shania Twain" (double platinum debut), "The Woman in Me" (Grammy winner and double-diamond seller--Recording Industry Association of America certification for 20,000,000 units), "Come on Over" (top-selling album in history by a female country artist), and "Up!" (Twain's third consecutive diamond-selling album).

Twain is releasing "Now" on Sept. 29, her fifth full-length album on Mercury Nashville and her first since 2002. The lead single is "Life's About to Get Good." Says Twain: "It's an honor to be a part of the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum exhibitions for 2017. Being able to revisit favorite costumes, photographs, and memories from my career has been a special feeling, especially as this year will see a new stage for me with a brand new album. I'm very excited to have these important creative moments on display."

"Shania Twain's impact on country music is undeniable," adds Kyle Young, CEO of the Country Music Hall of Fame, Nashville, Tenn. "Her message of female empowerment and dynamic pop sound electrified country music. Her continued influence is evidenced by artists like Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, and Kelsea Ballerini."

Twain is known for her groundbreaking, stylishly bold, yet elegant, videos. The exhibit will include outfits she wore in those clips and in conceit. Personal memorabilia, photos, awards, and stage props will help tell the story of Twain's remarkable life in music. Exhibit highlights include:

* Hooded leather coat with fur trim and fringe, and fur-trimmed boots with Native-American beadwork, worn on the cover of her self-titled 1993 debut album.

* Complete ensemble, including top hat, from 1999 music video for "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!"
