IMPORTANT NOTICE 

WHAT'S HAPPENING

  • 1/30Edifice Amiss: Constructing New Perspectives+

    Monday, January 30, 2012, 12 – 6 p.m.



    David Henderson, Lead Pencil Studio, Esther Stocker

    The artists and designers in this exhibition build sculptures and site-specific installations that challenge us to see our constructed world anew. Our relationship to buildings is often taken for granted, but the works in this exhibition – whether an abstracted abbey ceiling tilted on its side or an elevated evocation of a city street – reveal overlooked and sometimes hidden features of the architectural spaces in which we live and work.

    This exhibition was curated by Lisa Tung, Director of Curatorial Programs.

    Hours: Monday - Saturday: Noon–6 p.m., Wednesday: Noon–8 p.m.

  • 1/30Verdant+

    Monday, January 30, 2012, 12 – 6 p.m.



    Binh Danh, Paula Hayes, Tim Knowles, & Workingman Collective

    This exhibition explores the intersections between people and the natural environment; delving into the complexity of humanity’s relationships with the landscape through the work of contemporary artists who use living plants in their art. Rather than simply drawing inspiration from the biosphere, these artists utilize plant matter as their artistic media, incorporate natural growth processes to create striking images, employ plants with pollutant-eliminating abilities in interactive sculptures to create healthy social spaces, and even embrace plants as active collaborators in their work.

    This exhibition was curated by Lisa Tung, Director of Curatorial Programs.

Contact Greg Wallace, Public Services Librarian, for more information - 617-879-7108 or greg.wallace@massart.edu. [...]   Read more...
