Many Alaska museums' collections contain artworks that depict glaciers. In particular, I would recommend contacting the Anchorage Museum of History and Art. Sadly, their collection is not yet online, but they have digital images of the many landscapes and other glacier-inspired works they would likely share.
For a taste, check into these three books, each of which has two or three such works included:
Painting in the North: Alaskan Art in the Anchorage Museum of History and Art by Kesler E. Woodward, U of Washington Press, 1993.
Looking North: Art from the University of Alaska Museum edited by Aldona Jonaitis, U of Washington Press, 1998.
Icebreakers: Alaska's Most Innovative Artists by Julie Decker, Distributed by Decker Art Services, Anchorage, 1999.

Subject: Search for glacier imagery in contemporary art
Dear museum colleagues,
A researcher in the department of Geology at the University of Oregon is developing a project around art and glaciers. She is looking for modern and contemporary artists and/or exhibitions working with glacier themes in any media. She is especially interested in Icelandic artists, but is not limited to that nationality. Please contact M Jackson directly at jerilynn@uoregon.edu if you have any suggestions. Thanks in advance!
Sincerely,
Danielle Knapp
