(SEE CONTINUATION ON SCHEDULE O)EVA LEWITTMARCH 20, 2021 - OCTOBER 23, 2022SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALLEVA LEWITT'S VIBRANT, HANDMADE SCULPTURES ARE FASHIONED FROM EVERYDAY COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL MATERIALS. SHE CASTS, DYES, AND CUTS THESE PLIABLE, SOFT, AND OFTEN SYNTHETIC MATERIALS BEFORE COMPOSING THEM IN CAPTIVATING ARRANGEMENTS OF HANGING GEOMETRIC FORMS AND GRADATIONS OF UNDULATING COLOR. HER LARGE-SCALE ABSTRACT ARTWORKS OFTEN RECALL DOMESTIC OR THEATRICAL DECOR, SUCH AS CURTAINS, WHOSE COLORS ARE MEANT TO "RADIATE HEAT AND "GENERATE ENERGY," ACCORDING TO LEWITT. JUST AS CURTAINS EVOKE AN INTERPLAY BETWEEN INSIDE AND OUTSIDE (MAKING A BOUNDARY BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE OR ALTERNATIVELY REVEALING AND CONCEALING) LEWITT'S INTUITIVE MATERIAL ARRANGEMENTS PLAY WITH UNRESOLVED TENSIONS: BETWEEN TRANSPARENCY AND OPACITY, GRAVITY AND WEIGHTLESSNESS, ABSTRACTION AND DECORATION. CONCEIVED FOR THE ICA'S SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALL AND STRUCTURED BY THE PARTICULAR SHAPE OF THE MUSEUM'S ARCHITECTURE, UNTITLED (MESH CIRCLES) IS A MONUMENTAL SCULPTURE MADE OF BANDS OF COLORFUL COATED MESH FABRIC WHOSE SHIFTING LINEAR COMPOSITION CREATES A NUMBER OF INTERLOCKING CIRCULAR FORMS. WHILE COATED MESHES HAVE A VARIETY OF USES RANGING FROM PRIVACY SCREENS TO HIGH-VISIBILITY WORKWEAR, LEWITT TRANSFORMS LENGTHS OF THE TENSILE FABRIC INTO AN UNFOLDING ENVIRONMENTAL SCULPTURE THAT INTENSIFIES THE EXPERIENCE OF SPACE. AS THE CROSSHATCHED SURFACE PATTERN AND FIELDS OF COLOR OVERLAP AND RESPOND TO AMBIENT CONDITIONS LIKE SUNLIGHT AND CIRCULATING AIR, A MOIRE EFFECT IS PRODUCED: A SHIMMERING PATTERN THAT OCCURS WHEN TWO GEOMETRICALLY REGULAR PATTERNS ARE SUPERIMPOSED. UNTITLED (MESH CIRCLES) CREATES A DYNAMIC AND UPLIFTING EXPERIENCE THAT VIBRATES THROUGHOUT THE MUSEUM'S INTERIOR. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, ASSISTANT CURATOR AND PUBLICATIONS MANAGER.FIRELEI BAEZJULY 3, 2021 - SEPTEMBER 6, 2021ICA WATERSHEDIN SUMMER 2021, THE ICA WATERSHED FEATURED A NEWLY COMMISSIONED, MONUMENTAL SCULPTURE BY ACCLAIMED ARTIST FIRELEI BAEZ. IN HER LARGEST SCULPTURAL INSTALLATION TO DATE, THE ARTIST REIMAGINED THE ARCHEOLOGICAL RUINS OF THE SANS-SOUCI PALACE IN HAITI AS THOUGH THEY WERE REVEALED IN EAST BOSTON AFTER THE SEA RECEDED FROM THE WATERSHED FLOOR. THE WATERSHED'S LOCATION (IN A WORKING SHIPYARD AND AS A TRADE SITE AND POINT OF ENTRY AND HOME FOR IMMIGRANTS OVER DECADES) PROVIDED A PIVOTAL POINT OF REFERENCE. BAEZ EMBEDDED SANS-SOUCI WITHIN THE GEOLOGICAL LAYERS OF BOSTON, WHERE HISTORIES OF REVOLUTION AND INDEPENDENCE ARE INTEGRAL TO THE CITY'S IDENTITY. THIS SITE-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION INVITED VISITORS TO TRAVERSE PASSAGEWAYS AND TRAVEL THROUGH TIME, ENGAGING WITH STREAMS OF INFLUENCE AND INTERCONNECTEDNESS. THE WORK'S INTRICATELY PAINTED ARCHITECTURAL SURFACES INCLUDE SYMBOLS OF HEALING AND RESISTANCE, PATTERNING DRAWN FROM WEST AFRICAN INDIGO PRINTING TRADITIONS (LATER USED IN THE AMERICAN SOUTH), AND SEA GROWTHS NATIVE TO CARIBBEAN WATERS. BAEZ'S SCULPTURE POINTS TO THE CENTURIES-LONG EXCHANGES OF IDEAS AND INFLUENCE BETWEEN EUROPE, THE AFRICAN CONTINENT, AND THE AMERICAS. BAEZ WAS BORN IN 1981 IN SANTIAGO DE LOS CABALLEROS, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, TO A DOMINICAN MOTHER AND A FATHER OF HAITIAN DESCENT. HER UPBRINGING BETWEEN HISPANIOLA'S TWO COUNTRIES, WHICH HAVE A LONGSTANDING HISTORY OF TENSION PREDICATED ON ETHNIC DIFFERENCE, INFORMS HER CONCERNS WITH THE POLITICS OF PLACE AND HERITAGE. SHE CURRENTLY LIVES AND WORKS IN NEW YORK CITY.ORGANIZED BY EVA RESPINI, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR.STEPHEN HAMILTON: INDIGOJULY 3, 2021 - SEPTEMBER 6, 2021ICA WATERSHEDON DISPLAY IN THE ICA WATERSHED HARBOR ROOM IS A PROJECT BY BOSTON-BASED ARTIST STEPHEN HAMILTON HIGHLIGHTING THE GENERATIONS-LONG TRADITION OF INDIGO DYEING IN WEST AFRICA TOO OFTEN IGNORED IN THE ACCOUNTING OF EARLY AMERICAN HISTORY. INCLUDED IS HAMILTON'S PAINTING OWNERS OF THE EARTH (2020), A RICHLY LAYERED MIXED-MEDIA WORK THAT REFERS TO TRADITIONAL ARTFORMS AND PHILOSOPHIES FROM THE YORUBA PEOPLE IN WEST AFRICA. THE WORK IS ACCOMPANIED BY A DESCRIPTION OF THE UNRECOGNIZED HISTORICAL CONTRIBUTIONS OF WEST AFRICA TO INDIGO USE IN THE AMERICAS AND EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS DEPICTING INDIGO DYING TECHNIQUES THAT THE ARTIST ADOPTED DURING HIS RESEARCH IN SOUTHWESTERN NIGERIA. HAMILTON BRINGS THESE HISTORIES (REFERENCED IN FIRELEI BAEZ'S MONUMENTAL WATERSHED INSTALLATION CURRENTLY ON VIEW) TO LIFE THROUGH WORDS, IMAGES, AND TEXTILES. EVENTS OF 2020 BROUGHT THE WORLD TO A HALT, AFFECTING GLOBAL COMMERCE AND SECURITY, PUTTING OUR OWN MORTALITY IN SHARP FOCUS, AND HEIGHTENING EXISTING INEQUITIES, INJUSTICES, AND POLITICAL TENSIONS. IN THIS TIME, WE ASKED: WHAT IS THE ROLE OF ART AND MUSEUMS?ORGANIZED BY MONICA GARZA, CHARLOTTE WAGNER DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION.VIRGIL ABLOH: "FIGURES OF SPEECH"JULY 3, 2021 - SEPTEMBER 26, 2021BRIDGITT AND BRUCE EVANS AND KAREN AND BRIAN CONWAY GALLERIESVIRGIL ABLOH: "FIGURES OF SPEECH" IS THE FIRST MUSEUM EXHIBITION DEVOTED TO THE WORK OF THE GENRE-BENDING ARTIST AND DESIGNER VIRGIL ABLOH (B. 1980, ROCKFORD, IL). ABLOH PIONEERS A PRACTICE THAT CUTS ACROSS MEDIA AND CONNECTS VISUAL ARTISTS, MUSICIANS, GRAPHIC DESIGNERS, FASHION DESIGNERS, AND ARCHITECTS. ABLOH CULTIVATED AN INTEREST IN DESIGN AND MUSIC AT AN EARLY AGE, FINDING INSPIRATION IN THE URBAN CULTURE OF CHICAGO. WHILE PURSUING A MASTER'S DEGREE IN ARCHITECTURE FROM THE ILLINOIS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY, HE WORKED ON ALBUM COVERS, CONCERT DESIGNS, AND MERCHANDISING. IN 2013, ABLOH FOUNDED HIS STAND-ALONE FASHION BRAND OFF-WHITE IN MILAN, ITALY, AND, IN 2018, ASSUMED THE POSITION OF ARTISTIC DIRECTOR OF LOUIS VUITTON'S MENSWEAR. ORGANIZED BY THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART CHICAGO AND SET IN AN IMMERSIVE SPACE DESIGNED BY REM KOOLHAAS'S RENOWNED ARCHITECTURE FIRM OMA*AMO, THE EXHIBITION WILL OFFER AN IN-DEPTH LOOK AT DEFINING HIGHLIGHTS OF ABLOH'S CAREER, INCLUDING SIGNATURE CLOTHING COLLECTIONS, VIDEO DOCUMENTATION OF ICONIC FASHION SHOWS, DISTINCTIVE FURNITURE AND GRAPHIC DESIGN WORK, AND COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS WITH CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS. A PROGRAM OF CROSS-DISCIPLINARY OFFERINGS WILL MIRROR THE ARTIST'S RANGE OF INTERESTS ACROSS MUSIC AND DESIGN.DEEPLY INVESTED IN CREATING IMAGERY THAT IS LEGIBLE AND ACCESSIBLE, NINA CHANEL ABNEY (B. 1982, CHICAGO) IS KNOWN FOR WEAVING COLORFUL GEOMETRIC SHAPES, CARTOONS, LANGUAGE, AND SYMBOLS INTO CHAOTIC AND ENERGETIC COMPOSITIONS. AT THE ICA, SHE HAS CREATED A MURAL THAT SPEAKS TO SOCIAL TENSIONS IN THE DIGITAL AGE, INCLUDING THE CONSTANT STREAM OF TRUE AND FALSE INFORMATION, THE DILEMMA OF LIBERAL RACISM, AND ABUSES OF POWER THAT LEAD TO STRUCTURAL INEQUALITY.VIRGIL ABLOH: "FIGURES OF SPEECH" IS ORGANIZED BY MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART CHICAGO. THE EXHIBITION TOUR IS MADE POSSIBLE BY KENNETH C. GRIFFIN. THE EXHIBITION IS CURATED BY MICHAEL DARLING, FORMER JAMES W. ALSDORF CHIEF CURATOR AT MCA CHICAGO, AND IS DESIGNED BY SAMIR BANTAL, DIRECTOR OF AMO, THE RESEARCH AND DESIGN STUDIO OF OMA.

PARTICIPANTS FROM ACROSS ICA TEEN PROGRAMS WERE INVITED TO RESPOND TO A PROMPT ABOUT HOW THEY BREAK THE RULES, AND SIX WERE SELETED TO COLLABORATE ONE-ON-ONE WITH SLAUGHTER ON A SET OF PORTRAITS IN WHICH THEY STYLED THEIR OWN LOOKS FROM VIRGIL ABLOH FASHIONS CREATED FOR THE ICA. CENTRAL TO SLAUGHTER'S PORTRAITURE PRACTICE IS TO CREATE A COLLABORATIVE ENVIRONMENT WHERE SUBJECTS CAN CLAIM SPACE AND DETERMINE HOW THEY EXPRESS AND PRESENT THEMSELVES CREATIVELY - AN APPROACH THAT ALIGNS WITH THE PHILOSOPHIES UNDERLYING THE ICA'S TEEN PROGRAMMING. IN WORDS AND IMAGES THAT ARE AT TURNS DYNAMIC, JOYFUL, CONFRONTATIONAL, AND INTIMATE, SIX ICA TEENS DIRECTLY ADDRESS THEIR OWN AUTONOMY AND OTHERS' MISCONCEPTIONS OF WHAT IT IS TO BE A YOUNG PERSON.THIS PRESENTATION WAS ORGANIZED BY KRIS WILTON, DIRECTOR OF CREATIVE CONTENT AND DIGITAL ENGAGEMENT, AND BETSY GIBBONS, DIRECTOR OF TEEN PROGRAMS, WITH NOHEMI RODRIGUEZ, TEEN PROGRAMS ASSOCIATE.2021 JAMES AND AUDREY FOSTER PRIZESEPTEMBER 1, 2021 - JANUARY 30, 2022FOTENE DEMOULAS GALLERY 1766590 17115 EDUCATION, ADULTS, TEENSTHE ICA OFFERS A ROBUST RANGE OF EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS BUILT AROUND THEMES IN CONTEMPORARY ART.

RAUL DE NIEVES: THE TREASURE HOUSE OF MEMORY SEPTEMBER 1, 2021 - JULY 24, 2022 PAUL AND CATHERINE BUTTENWIESER GALLERY RAUL DE NIEVES (B. 1983, MICHOACN, MEXICO) IS A NEW YORK-BASED INTERDISCIPLINARY ARTIST, PERFORMER, AND MUSICIAN WHOSE MULTIFACETED PRACTICE RANGES FROM STAINED-GLASS-STYLE NARRATIVE PAINTINGS TO ANIMATED PERFORMANCES, TO DENSELY ADORNED FIGURATIVE SCULPTURES ENCRUSTED WITH BANGLES, BEADS, BELLS, SEQUINS, AND OTHER HOMESPUN MATERIALS. THESE OPULENT, JOYFUL SCULPTURES REFERENCE TRADITIONAL COSTUMES IN MEXICAN CULTURE AND MODES OF DRESS FROM DRAG, BALLROOM, AND QUEER CLUB CULTURES, WHILE ALSO EVOKING RELIGIOUS PROCESSIONAL ATTIRE AND THE OUTFITS WORN BY CIRCUS PERFORMERS. ALL OF HIS WORKS SHARE A DISTINCTIVE VISUAL LANGUAGE THAT DRAWS FROM MEXICAN CRAFT TRADITIONS, RELIGIOUS ICONOGRAPHY, MYTHOLOGY, AND FOLKTALES TO EXPLORE THE TRANSFORMATIONAL POSSIBILITIES OF ADORNMENT AND THE MUTABILITY OF SEXUALITY AND IDENTITY. FOR THE ICA, DE NIEVES IS CREATING A BODY OF INTERCONNECTED WORKS ROOTED IN MEMORY AND EXPLORING THEMES OF PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION. THE TREASURE HOUSE OF MEMORY EXPANDS THE ARTIST'S INVENTIVE ADAPTATION OF ICONOGRAPHIC TRADITIONS INHERITED FROM THE PAST THROUGH VIBRANT AMALGAMATIONS OF FORM AND MATERIAL RENDERED IN AN ENERGETIC AND ACCESSIBLE VISUAL LANGUAGE. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, ASSISTANT CURATOR AND PUBLICATIONS MANAGER.

THESE SPACE POEMS, AS THE ARTIST CALLS THEM, ARE EXPERIMENTS IN ASSOCIATIVE THINKING FUSED WITH THE ARTIST'S INTEREST IN PRINTMAKING, DESIGN, TYPOGRAPHY, AND ARCHITECTURE. THEY HAVE APPEARED IN INTERSTITIAL SPACES, SUCH AS HALLWAYS, AND DRAW ATTENTION TO THE UNDERUTILIZED ARCHITECTURAL SPACES WITHIN MUSEUMS. THE BANNERS ARE PRINTED WITH A VARIETY OF TEXTS AND GRAPHICS AND INCLUDE WIDE-RANGING QUOTATIONS FROM FIGURES SUCH AS MUSICIAN ALICE COLTRANE AND WRITER OCTAVIA E. BUTLER, AS WELL AS POLITICAL PHRASES AND SLOGANS. PRESENTED OVERHEAD TO BE READ, REREAD, AND EVEN MISREAD, GREEN INVITES VIEWERS TO CREATE THEIR OWN POEMS, WORD ASSOCIATIONS, AND CONNECTIONS. SPACE POEM #1 ARTICULATES A VISUALIZATION OF SPACE, THOUGHT, AND COLOR THAT SLOWS THE ACT OF LOOKING AND REFLECTS ON THE CAPACIOUS NATURE OF LANGUAGE. SPACE POEM #1 WAS ACQUIRED THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF THE ACQUISITIONS CIRCLE AND ANONYMOUS ART ACQUISITION FUND. DEANA LAWSON NOVEMBER 4, 2021 - FEBRUARY 27, 2022 BRIDGITT AND BRUCE EVANS AND KAREN AND BRIAN CONWAY GALLERIES THIS EXHIBITION IS THE FIRST MUSEUM SURVEY DEDICATED TO THE WORK OF DEANA LAWSON (B. 1979 IN ROCHESTER, NY), A SINGULAR VOICE IN PHOTOGRAPHY TODAY. FOR MORE THAN 15 YEARS, LAWSON HAS BEEN INVESTIGATING AND CHALLENGING CONVENTIONAL REPRESENTATIONS OF BLACK LIFE THROUGH A WIDE SPECTRUM OF PHOTOGRAPHIC LANGUAGES, INCLUDING THE FAMILY ALBUM, STUDIO PORTRAITURE, STAGED TABLEAUX, DOCUMENTARY PICTURES, AND APPROPRIATED IMAGES. ENGAGING ACQUAINTANCES AS WELL AS STRANGERS SHE MEETS ON THE STREET, LAWSON METICULOUSLY POSES HER SUBJECTS IN HIGHLY STAGED PHOTOGRAPHS THAT PICTURE NARRATIVES OF FAMILY, LOVE, AND DESIRE, AND CREATE WHAT THE ARTIST DESCRIBES AS "A MIRROR OF EVERYDAY LIFE, BUT ALSO A PROJECTION OF WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN. IT'S ABOUT SETTING A DIFFERENT STANDARD OF VALUES AND SAYING THAT EVERYDAY BLACK LIVES, EVERYDAY EXPERIENCES, ARE BEAUTIFUL, AND POWERFUL, AND INTELLIGENT." THIS EXHIBITION IS CO-ORGANIZED BY ICA/BOSTON AND MOMA PS1. ORGANIZED BY EVA RESPINI, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR, ICA/BOSTON, AND PETER ELEEY, CURATOR-AT-LARGE, UCCA CENTER FOR CONTEMPORARY ART, BEIJING AND SHANGHAI, WITH ANNI PULLAGURA, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT, ICA/BOSTON. NAPOLEON JONES-HENDERSON: "I AM AS I AM - A MAN" FEBRUARY 17, 2022 - JULY 24, 2022 FOTENE DEMOULAS GALLERY FOR MORE THAN 50 YEARS, NAPOLEON JONES-HENDERSON (B. 1943, CHICAGO) HAS CREATED WORKS THAT STRIVE TO HIGHLIGHT, CELEBRATE, AND EMPOWER THE COMMUNITIES WHERE HE LIVES. JONES-HENDERSON IS A LONGSTANDING FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE INFLUENTIAL ARTIST COLLECTIVE AFRICAN COMMUNE OF BAD RELEVANT ARTISTS (AFRICOBRA). HIS WORK TRANSLATES AFRICOBRA'S AESTHETIC PRINCIPLES (TO CREATE IMAGES INSPIRED BY THE LIVED EXPERIENCE AND CULTURES OF PEOPLE OF THE AFRICAN DIASPORA IN AN ACCESSIBLE GRAPHIC STYLE WITH SHINING KOOL-AID COLORS) INTO WOVEN TAPESTRIES, MOSAIC TILE WORKS, SHRINE-LIKE SCULPTURES, AND VARIED WORKS ON PAPER. OFTEN FOCUSED ON THEMES OF PAN-AFRICANISM AND RACIAL JUSTICE, JONES-HENDERSON'S WORK AIMS TO BE SELF-AFFIRMING AND REFLECTIVE, WITH AN EYE TOWARD BOTH A FRAUGHT PAST AND A LIBERATED FUTURE. THE ARTIST INTEGRATES FORMS FROM AFRICAN RITUAL SCULPTURE AND SOUTHERN VERNACULAR ARCHITECTURE AND INCORPORATES REVERENTIAL REFERENCES TO JAZZMAN DUKE ELLINGTON'S "SACRED CONCERTS," MUSICIANS SUN RA AND STEVIE WONDER, AND WRITER JUNE JORDAN, AMONG OTHERS. MADE IN CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH THE ARTIST, THIS CONCISE SURVEY DRAWS TOGETHER A SUITE OF JONES-HENDERSON'S WORKS IN VARIOUS MEDIA ACROSS A 50-YEAR PERIOD, CENTERED AROUND HIS MAGISTERIAL WOVEN TEXTILES. JONES-HENDERSON HAS BEEN BASED SINCE 1974 IN ROXBURY, WHERE HE HAS BEEN AN INFLUENTIAL COMMUNITY MEMBER, EDUCATOR, AND MENTOR. THIS IS HIS MOST COMPREHENSIVE SOLO MUSEUM EXHIBITION IN BOSTON. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, ASSISTANT CURATOR AND PUBLICATIONS MANAGER. PHOTOGRAPHS FROM UKRAINE MARCH 18, 2022 - JANUARY 29, 2023 THIRD FLOOR LOBBY THE ICA IS COMMITTED TO SHARING ARTISTS' PERSPECTIVES ON THE WORLD. THESE TWO PHOTOGRAPHS ARE IN THE MUSEUM'S PERMANENT COLLECTION AND WERE MADE IN UKRAINE BY PHOTOGRAPHER BORIS MIKHAILOV, WHO WAS FEATURED IN A SOLO EXHIBITION AT THE ICA IN 2004. MIKHAILOV'S HOMETOWN OF KHARKIV PROVIDED THE BACKDROP TO HIS SERIES CASE HISTORY, WHICH DOCUMENTS PEOPLE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS AFTER THE COLLAPSE OF THE SOVIET UNION IN THE EARLY 1990S. FOR OVER 40 YEARS, MIKHAILOV HAS EXPLORED THE POSITION OF THE INDIVIDUAL WITHIN THE HISTORICAL MECHANISMS OF PUBLIC IDEOLOGY, TOUCHING ON SUCH SUBJECTS AS UKRAINE UNDER SOVIET RULE, THE LIVING CONDITIONS IN POST-COMMUNIST EASTERN EUROPE, AND THE FALLEN IDEALS OF THE SOVIET UNION. HIS LIFE-SIZE COLOR PHOTOGRAPHS DOCUMENT THE OPPRESSION, POVERTY, AND EVERYDAY REALITY OF A DISENFRANCHISED COMMUNITY LIVING ON THE MARGINS OF WHAT WAS THEN RUSSIA'S NEW ECONOMIC REGIME. THESE SEARING IMAGES POINT TO UKRAINE AS A PLACE OF BEAUTY, DEEP HISTORY, TRAUMA, AND TRAGEDY, BOTH PAST AND, WITH RUSSIA'S UNPROVOKED INVASION OF UKRAINE, IN THE PRESENT. A PLACE FOR ME: FIGURATIVE PAINTING NOW MARCH 31, 2022 - SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 KAREN AND BRIAN CONWAY GALLERIES A PLACE FOR ME CELEBRATES A NEW GENERATION OF ARTISTS AT THE VANGUARD OF CONTEMPORARY PAINTING. DAVID ANTONIO CRUZ, LOUIS FRATINO, DORON LANGBERG, AUBREY LEVINTHAL, GISELA MCDANIEL, ARCMANORO NILES, CELESTE RAPONE, AND AMBERA WELLMANN ARE PROPELLING FIGURATIVE PAINTING'S RECENT REVIVAL BY DEPICTING WHAT THEY LOVE (THEIR FRIENDS, LOVERS, AND FAMILY; STUDIO SPACES AND HOMES; AND THE SCENES THAT MAKE UP THEIR EVERYDAY). EVOKING INTIMACY, COMMUNITY, AND THE PERSONAL IN THE POWER TO REPRESENT ONESELF IN PAINTING, THESE ARTISTS CONSIDER THE POLITICS OF SEEING AND BEING SEEN AND HOW THE PROCESS OF PAINTING MIGHT REGISTER CARE, TENDERNESS, FRAGILITY, EMPATHY, AND RESILIENCE. COLORFUL, SURPRISING, AND FULL OF LIFE, A PLACE FOR ME IS A TESTAMENT TO THE VITALITY OF CONTEMPORARY FIGURATIVE ART, REFLECTING A MULTITUDE OF STYLES AND APPROACHES TO PAINTING THROUGH A CROSS-SECTION OF CONTEMPORARY PAINTING TODAY.

BARBARA WAGNER & BENJAMIN DE BURCA: SWINGUERRA MARCH 31, 2022 - SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 BRIDGITT AND BRUCE EVANS GALLERIES COLLABORATING SINCE 2011, BARBARA WAGNER AND BENJAMIN DE BURCA CREATE WORKS IN VIDEO, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND INSTALLATION THAT EXPLORE CONTEMPORARY HISTORIES OF UNDERGROUND DANCE AND MUSICAL GENRES. FREQUENTLY MADE IN COLLABORATION WITH CINEMATOGRAPHER PEDRO SOTERO, THESE MOVING-IMAGE WORKS, WHICH THEY REFER TO AS "DOCUMENTARY MUSICALS," OFTEN CENTER ON URBAN SUBCULTURES IN THE SOUTH ATLANTIC DIASPORA, FROM THE FRANCO-INDO CREOLE MUSICAL GENRE MALOYA TO FREVO DANCERS AND BREGA SINGERS IN RECIFE, BRAZIL, WHERE THE ARTISTS LIVE AND WORK. CONSTRUCTING IMAGES TOGETHER WITH PERFORMERS, THEIR APPROACH MERGES THE CINEMATIC WITH THE FICTIONAL, DOCUMENTARY, AND ETHNOGRAPHIC TO ADDRESS QUESTIONS OF SURVEILLANCE, VISIBILITY, AND CREATIVITY IN AN INCREASINGLY CONNECTED, POSTCOLONIAL WORLD. A RECENT ACQUISITION AND ROOM-FILLING INSTALLATION ON VIEW FOR THE FIRST TIME, SWINGUERRA (2019) FOCUSES ON DISADVANTAGED QUEER COMMUNITIES OF COLOR IN RECIFE, BRAZIL, WITH AN EMPHASIS ON TRANSGENDER AND NONBINARY PERFORMERS. THE FILM FEATURES THREE CONTEMPORARY DANCE STYLES (SWINGUEIRA, BREGA FUNK, AND PASSINHO DA MALOCA) AS PERFORMED BY THREE COMPETITIVE DANCE GROUPS. THESE MIXED DANCE STYLES RECALL BRAZIL'S COLONIAL AND SLAVE TRADE HISTORY, WHERE MUSIC AND DANCE FUNCTIONED AS DISCREET METHODS OF ORGANIZING POLITICALLY UNDER OPPRESSIVE REGIMES. FAST-PACED, ATHLETIC, SEXY, DREAMLIKE, AND AGGRESSIVE, THE DANCE STYLES, LIKE THE MUSIC, MAKE SWINGUERRA AN EXHILARATING AND UNFORGETTABLE VIEWING EXPERIENCE, ILLUSTRATING HOW DANCE AND MUSIC OFFER RICH SOURCES OF AGENCY, RESISTANCE, AND COMMUNITY FOR MARGINALIZED INDIVIDUALS. ORGANIZED BY ANNI PULLAGURA, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. REVIVAL: MATERIALS AND MONUMENTAL FORMS MAY 26, 2022 - SEPTEMBER 5, 2022 ICA WATERSHED IN SUMMER 2022, THE ICA WATERSHED PRESENTS REVIVAL: MATERIALS AND MONUMENTAL FORMS, AN EXHIBITION OF LARGE-SCALE INSTALLATIONS BY SIX INTERNATIONAL ARTISTS WHO RECLAIM AND REUSE INDUSTRIAL AND EVERYDAY MATERIALS. INSPIRED BY THE WATERSHED BUILDING'S MIXED-USE HISTORY (BUILT IN THE 1930S AS A COPPER PIPE AND SHEET METAL MANUFACTURING PLANT AND SERVING SINCE 2018 AS A FREE SITE FOR CONTEMPORARY ART) THIS EXHIBITION HIGHLIGHTS HOW ARTISTS HAVE DERIVED INSPIRATION FROM INDUSTRY, LABOR, AND THE POETIC AND POLITICAL POWER OF FOUND GOODS. PARTICIPATING ARTISTS INCLUDE EL ANATSUI (B. 1944, ANYAKO, GHANA), MADELINE HOLLANDER (B. 1986, LOS ANGELES), IBRAHIM MAHAMA (B. 1987, TAMALE, GHANA), KARYN OLIVIER (B. 1968, PORT OF SPAIN, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO), EBONY G. PATTERSON (B. 1981, KINGSTON, JAMAICA), AND JOE WARDWELL (B. 1972, CHAPEL HILL, NC). MAKING VISIBLE THE OFTEN INVISIBLE FORCES THAT SHAPE HUMAN EXPERIENCES, THESE ARTISTS REFLECT ON THE SYSTEMS OF INDUSTRY, NATURE, AND SOCIETY IN MONUMENTAL ARTWORKS. FOR SOME, RECYCLED OBJECTS EXPAND IDEAS OF MATERIALITY AND INDUSTRY IN DAILY LIFE: ANATSUI COLLECTS BOTTLE CAPS AND OTHER REFUSE TO FORM GLITTERING, TAPESTRY-LIKE SCULPTURES; HOLLANDER PROGRAMS AUTOMOBILE HEAD AND TAILLIGHTS TO BLINK WITH THE MOVEMENT OF TRAFFIC; AND PATTERSON MAKES INTRICATE COLLAGES OF FLOWERS, BIRDS, BUTTERFLIES, AND FIGURES. OLIVIER AND MAHAMA COLLECT USED CLOTHING AND CRATES, RESPECTIVELY, TO BUILD TOWERING SCULPTURES THAT REFLECT ON HUMAN PERSISTENCE, LABOR, AND INGENUITY. WARDWELL, A BOSTON-BASED ARTIST, WILL CREATE A NEW, SITE-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION IN DIALOGUE WITH THE RICH HISTORY OF LABOR SONGS. TOGETHER, THESE ARTWORKS CAPTURE THE POWER OF REUSE, RESILIENCE, AND RECLAMATION, CELEBRATING A REVIVAL OF THE EVERYDAY AT MONUMENTAL SCALE.
