COLLECTIONS WHICH WERE ACQUIRED THROUGH PURCHASES AND CONTRIBUTIONS SINCE THE ICA'S INCEPTION, ARE NOT RECOGNIZED AS ASSETS ON THE STATEMENTS OF FINANCIAL POSITION. PURCHASES OF COLLECTION ITEMS ARE RECORDED AS DECREASES IN NET ASSETS WITHOUT DONOR RESTRICTIONS IN THE YEAR IN WHICH THE ITEMS ARE ACQUIRED, OR AS A DECREASE IN NET ASSETS WITH DONOR RESTRICTIONS IF THE ASSETS ARE USED TO PURCHASE THE ITEMS THAT ARE RESTRICTED BY DONORS. CONTRIBUTED COLLECTION ITEMS ARE NOT REFLECTED ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. PROCEEDS FROM DEACCESSIONS OR INSURANCE RECOVERIES ARE REFLECTED AS INCREASES IN THE APPROPRIATE NET ASSET CLASSES. THE COLLECTIONS ARE SUBJECT TO A POLICY THAT REQUIRES PROCEEDS FROM THEIR DEACCESSIONS OR INSURANCE RECOVERIES TO BE USED TO ACQUIRE OTHER ITEMS FOR COLLECTIONS. THE ICA PURCHASED 5 AND 10 PIECES OF ART FOR THE PERMANENT COLLECTIONS IN THE AMOUNT OF $593,717 AND $627,815 DURING THE YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025 AND 2024, RESPECTIVELY. |

TEXT HAS BEEN PART OF VISUAL EXPRESSION FOR CENTURIES, BUT "TEXT ART" AS A GENRE BEGAN TO PROLIFERATE WITH THE EMERGENCE OF CONCEPTUAL ART IN THE 1960S. ARTISTS IN THE EXHIBITION USE TEXT TO PROBE PHILOSOPHICAL QUESTIONS, EXPRESS AND SUBVERT POLITICAL MESSAGES, CHALLENGE NOTIONS OF IDENTITY, AND CONNECT THEIR ARTWORK WITH MULTIPLE REFERENCES, WRITERS, AND CULTURAL ICONS. THIS EXHIBITION WILL FEATURE MANY RECENTLY ACQUIRED WORKS THAT HAVE NEVER BEEN ON VIEW BY ARTISTS KENTURAH DAVIS, TAYLOR DAVIS, JOE WARDWELL, AND RIVANE NEUENSCHWANDER, ALONGSIDE WORK BY SHEPARD FAIREY, JENNY HOLZER, GLENN LIGON, AND OTHERS WHO HAVE PIONEERED THE CREATIVE ENGAGEMENT WITH LANGUAGE. ORGANIZED BY RUTH ERICKSON, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL AFFAIRS, AND ERIKA UMALI, CURATOR OF COLLECTIONS. IGHSAAN ADAMS FEBRUARY 13, 2024 - JANUARY 26, 2025 SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALL MULTIDISCIPLINARY ARTIST IGSHAAN ADAMS (BORN 1982 IN CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA) EXPLORES HOW PEOPLE INHABIT AND MOVE THROUGH SPACE. ADAMS UTILIZES PRACTICES OF WEAVING TO MAKE VISIBLE EVERYDAY PATTERNS OF MOVEMENT THAT SPEAK TO FORMS OF CARE, SURVIVAL, AND RESISTANCE IN POST-APARTHEID SOUTH AFRICA. ADAMS'S RECENT LARGE-SCALE WOVEN TAPESTRIES POINT TO THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF THE ARTIST'S SPIRITUALITY, FAMILIAL HISTORIES, AND LOCAL COMMUNITY NARRATIVES AS ROOTED IN HIS SOUTH AFRICAN HERITAGE, AS WELL AS THE FRAUGHT LAND USE IN THE REGION. HE DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM THE URBAN PLANNING TERM "DESIRE LINES" PATHS CREATED BY PEDESTRIANS OVER TIME THAT FALL OUTSIDE OF PLANNED WALKWAYS. IN ADAMS'S PRACTICE AND IN SOUTH AFRICA, THE ESTABLISHMENT OF DESIRE LINES REPRESENTS AN ACT OF TRANSGRESSION IN THE FACE OF FIXED BOUNDARIES ENFORCED BY THE GOVERNMENT DURING THE APARTHEID ERA TO FORCIBLY SEPARATE COMMUNITIES ALONG RACIAL CASTES. LYNLOOP, ADAMS'S MONUMENTAL NEW COMMISSION FOR THE ICA/BOSTON, IS A MULTIPART EXPERIMENTAL WEAVING DEVELOPED IN RESPONSE TO THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE MUSEUM AND THE ARTIST'S CHILDHOOD MEMORIES. IT IS BASED ON AERIAL IMAGES OF THE INTERSECTING FOOTPATHS BETWEEN A SPORTS FIELD AND A WALLED-OFF RECREATIONAL SPACE SOUTH OF WHERE ADAMS GREW UP. THROUGH THE WORK, ADAMS CONSIDERS THE IMPACT OF CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES AND MEMORIES ON THE TRAJECTORY OF ONE'S LIFE. HE WRITES, "IN SITTING WITH THE DISCOMFORT OF GROWING UP AMONG THESE HYPERMASCULINE SPACES, THE INSTALLATION EXPLORES HOW I HAVE HAD TO SUPERIMPOSE MY OWN FANTASIES ONTO MEMORIES IN A WAY THAT SOFTENS THE HARD EDGES AND COLDNESS OF THIS AREA." IN HUES OF PINK WITH BEADS, ROPE, CHAIN, AND MOHAIR, LYNLOOP IS A STUNNING AND TACTILE MAPPING OF SPACE, HUMAN INTERACTION, AND MEMORY. ORGANIZED BY RUTH ERICKSON, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL AFFAIRS.

SHE DRAWS ON THE DISCIPLINES OF ANTHROPOLOGY, GEOGRAPHY, FOLKLORE, FANTASY, SCIENCE FICTION, AND SOCIAL HISTORY TO UNSETTLE CATEGORIES OF RACE, GENDER, AND NATIONALITY IN HER PAINTINGS, DRAWINGS, AND INSTALLATIONS. HER EXUBERANT PAINTINGS FEATURE FINELY WROUGHT, COMPLEX, AND LAYERED USES OF PATTERN, DECORATION, AND SATURATED COLOR, OFTEN OVERLAID ON MAPS MADE DURING COLONIAL RULE IN THE AMERICAS. BAEZ'S INVESTMENT IN THE MEDIUM OF PAINTING AND ITS CAPACITY FOR STORYTELLING AND MYTHMAKING INFORMS ALL HER WORK, INCLUDING HER SCULPTURAL INSTALLATIONS, WHICH BRING THIS QUALITY INTO THREE DIMENSIONS. THIS EXHIBITION WILL OFFER AUDIENCES A TIMELY OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN A HOLISTIC UNDERSTANDING OF BAEZ'S COMPLEX AND PROFOUNDLY MOVING BODY OF WORK, CEMENTING HER AS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ARTISTS OF THE EARLY 21ST CENTURY. THE EXHIBITION IS ACCOMPANIED BY A RICHLY ILLUSTRATED CATALOGUE. THE EXHIBITION WILL TOUR THROUGHOUT NORTH AMERICA TO THE VANCOUVER ART GALLERY (NOV. 3, 2024 - MAR. 16, 2025) AND THE DES MOINES ART CENTER (JUN. 14, 2025 - SEP. 21, 2025). ORGANIZED BY EVA RESPINI, DEPUTY DIRECTOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL PROGRAMS, VANCOUVER ART GALLERY, (FORMER BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR, ICA/BOSTON), WITH TESSA BACHI HAAS, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. HEW LOCKE: THE PROCESSION MAY 23, 2024 - SEPTEMBER 2, 2024 ICA WATERSHED A PROCESSION IS PART OF LIFE; PEOPLE GATHER AND MOVE TOGETHER TO CELEBRATE, WORSHIP, PROTEST, MOURN, ESCAPE, OR CALL FOR CHANGE. THESE EXPRESSIONS ARE ALL AT THE HEART OF THE PROCESSION, AN AMBITIOUS INSTALLATION FIRST COMMISSIONED BY TATE BRITAIN, UK, AND MAKING ITS NORTH AMERICAN DEBUT AT THE ICA WATERSHED. THROUGH HIS MULTIVALENT PRACTICE, HEW LOCKE OBE RA (BORN 1959 IN EDINBURGH, UNITED KINGDOM; LIVES AND WORKS IN LONDON) EXPLORES INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE RELATIONSHIPS TO POWER, CULTURAL MEMORY, AND MIGRATION. THE ARTIST SPENT HIS FORMATIVE YEARS IN THE THEN NEWLY INDEPENDENT COUNTRY OF GUYANA, A FORMER BRITISH COLONY, WHERE HE BECAME FASCINATED BY THE SYMBOLS THROUGH WHICH INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS ASSERT THEIR IDENTITIES. HIS WORK HAS TOUCHED ON A WIDE ARRAY OF SUBJECTS, FROM BRITISH COLONIALISM AND CARIBBEAN CARNIVAL TO POLITICAL ICONOGRAPHIES AND PUBLIC MONUMENTS. HE INVESTIGATES THESE IDEAS THROUGH MATERIALS SUCH AS CARDBOARD, COSTUME JEWELRY, AND REPURPOSED EMBLEMS OF BRITISH IDENTITY, CREATING ELABORATE ARTWORKS WITH LAYERED AND EXPANSIVE MEANINGS THAT ENGAGE WITH THE HISTORIES AND CONTEMPORARY LEGACIES OF COLONIALISM AND EMPIRE. DRAWING UPON A SERIES OF MOTIFS AND CONCERNS THAT HAVE OCCUPIED THE ARTIST OVER DECADES, THE PROCESSION IS A COLORFUL GATHERING OF APPROXIMATELY 140 LIFE-SIZE SCULPTURES OF MASKED FIGURES OF ALL AGES AND ABILITIES ADORNED IN PRINTED FABRICS AND EMBROIDERIES-CARIBBEAN CARNIVAL QUEENS, DANCERS, REFUGEES, HORSEBACK-MOUNTED MILITARY FIGURES, FISHERS, LABORERS, PREGNANT WOMEN, CHILDREN, DRUMMERS, AND FLAG BEARERS. THE FORWARD-FACING FIGURES CARRY PROPS OR WEAR COSTUMES THAT REPRODUCE IMAGERY FROM HISTORICAL PAINTINGS, ADVERTISEMENTS, SHARE CERTIFICATES, MAPS, AND PHOTOGRAPHS, INCLUDING REPRODUCTIONS OF THE ARTIST'S OWN WORK. POETIC AND POWERFUL, THIS INSTALLATION DRAWS ON THE METAPHOR OF THE VOYAGE TO, IN THE ARTIST'S WORDS, "REFLECT ON THE CYCLES OF HISTORY, AND THE EBB AND FLOW OF CULTURES, PEOPLE, FINANCE, AND POWER." SEEN WITHIN THE HARBORSIDE SETTING OF THE ICA WATERSHED IN EAST BOSTON, THE PROCESSION IS A COMPELLING AND IMMERSIVE INVITATION FOR VISITORS TO CROSS HISTORICAL AND NARRATIVE TIME IN AN EXPERIENCE THAT DELIGHTS THE EYES AND EXPANDS THE MIND. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | ORGANIZED BY RUTH ERICKSON, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL AFFAIRS, AND ANNI A. PULLAGURA, CONSULTING ASSISTANT CURATOR, IN COLLABORATION WITH TATE. HEW LOCKE: THE PROCESSION WAS ORIGINALLY COMMISSIONED BY TATE BRITAIN FOR ITS 2022 TATE BRITAIN COMMISSION. COLLECTION SPOTLIGHT: ZOE PETTIJOHN SCHADE AUG 13, 2024 - MAR 30, 2025 THIRD FLOOR LOBBY ZOE PETTIJOHN SCHADE CREATES PAINSTAKING PAINTINGS ON PAPER, OFTEN WORKING FOR YEARS ON WORKS THAT TAKE A UNIQUE APPROACH TO PATTERN AND REPETITION. THE RECENT WORK ATTEMPTS AT SELF ORGANIZATION: PREVAILING BONDS, ON VIEW IN THE THIRD FLOOR LOBBY, IS AN EXPLORATION OF FUNDAMENTAL STATES OF BEING THAT EVOKE THE CELLULAR, THE ATOMIC, AND THE ELEMENTAL. ITS TITLE REFERS TO THE WRITINGS OF PLATO, ST. AUGUSTINE, AND FRENCH BIOLOGIST STPHANE LEDUC, WHO EACH INFORMED THE ARTIST'S SENSE OF HOW THERE IS MEANING IN HOW FORMS ARE ORGANIZED. HERE, MARBLED PAINT SERVES AS THE FOUNDATION FOR A DIZZYING ARRAY OF FORMAL EXPLORATIONS, INCLUDING MIRRORED CUBES, HEXAGONS, DIAMONDS, FEATHERS, LEAVES, AND RORSCHACH-LIKE INK BLOTS, WHICH FOR THE ARTIST CREATE SELF-CONTAINED WORLDS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN ATMOSPHERE. THE INTERPLAY OF THIN METALLIC LINES FORMS AN ELABORATIVE CONFIGURATION OF GEOMETRIC SHAPES. WHILE THE DISTRIBUTION OF MATTER MAY APPEAR CHAOTIC AND OVERWHELMING, TINY DETAILS REPEAT AND RECUR THROUGHOUT. THROUGH LONG PERIODS OF CLOSE LOOKING, THE LAYERS OF PETTIJOHN SCHADE'S ORGANIZING STRUCTURE JOSTLE FOR POSITION, STRUGGLING TO EXERT THE BOND BETWEEN THEMSELVES AND OTHERS IN A PROCESS THAT EVOKES LIFE AT EVERY SCALE. ORGANIZED BY MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. THE GUN VIOLENCE MEMORIAL PROJECT AUGUST 29, 2024 - JANUARY 20, 2025 PAUL AND CATHERINE BUTTENWIESER GALLERY "...YOU HEAR THOSE NUMBERS ALL THE TIME, BUT YOU NEVER TIE NAMES TO THEM. I WANTED YOU TO SEE WHO MY SON WAS." - PAMELA BOSLEY, CO-FOUNDER OF PURPOSE OVER PAIN, MOTHER OF TERRELL BOSLEY "OUR GOAL WAS TO COMMUNICATE THE ENORMITY OF THE EPIDEMIC WHILE ALSO HONORING THE INDIVIDUALS WHOSE LIVES HAVE BEEN TAKEN." - JHA D. AMAZI, MASS DESIGN GROUP THE GUN VIOLENCE MEMORIAL PROJECT (2019 - PRESENT) CREATES SPACE TO GATHER, REMEMBER, AND ACT IN LIGHT OF THE ONGOING GUN VIOLENCE CRISIS. A COLLABORATION BETWEEN BOSTON-BASED MASS DESIGN GROUP AND SONGHA & COMPANY, WHERE ARTIST HANK WILLIS THOMAS IS CREATIVE DIRECTOR, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION ORGANIZATION PURPOSE OVER PAIN, THE PROJECT WAS LAUNCHED AT THE 2019 CHICAGO ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE. IT COMPRISES FOUR GLASS HOUSES, EACH BUILT OF 700 CLEAR BRICKS, A REFERENCE TO THE AVERAGE NUMBER OF GUN DEATHS EVERY WEEK IN THE UNITED STATES. MANY OF THE BRICKS HOLD REMEMBRANCE OBJECTS SUCH AS BABY SHOES, GRADUATION TASSELS, AND PHOTOGRAPHS OFFERED BY FAMILIES IN HONOR OF LOVED ONES WHOSE LIVES HAVE BEEN TAKEN DUE TO GUN VIOLENCE. THESE LIVING MEMORIALS INVITE US TO VIEW THE IMPACT OF GUN VIOLENCE THROUGH INDIVIDUAL PERSONAL NARRATIVES. IN A CITYWIDE COLLABORATION, THE GUN VIOLENCE MEMORIAL PROJECT WILL BE ON VIEW AT THE ICA, BOSTON CITY HALL, AND THE MASS DESIGN GROUP GALLERY IN BOSTON'S SOUTH END. LOCAL COLLECTING EVENTS ORGANIZED THROUGH LOUIS D. BROWN PEACE INSTITUTE WILL TAKE PLACE IN SUMMER AND FALL 2024. THE ICA PRESENTATION IS ORGANIZED BY RUTH ERICKSON, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL AFFAIRS, WITH MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. TAU LEWIS: SPIRIT LEVEL AUGUST 29, 2024 - JANUARY 20, 2025 FOTENE DEMOULAS GALLERY TAU LEWIS (B. 1993, TORONTO) TRANSFORMS FOUND MATERIALS INTO INTRICATELY DETAILED SOFT SCULPTURES, QUILTS, MASKS, AND OTHER ASSEMBLAGES THROUGH INTENSIVE PROCESSES SUCH AS HAND-SEWING, CARVING, AND PLASTER CASTING. A SELF-TAUGHT ARTIST, LEWIS'S PRACTICE IS DIRECTED AT HEALING PERSONAL, COLLECTIVE, AND HISTORICAL TRAUMAS THROUGH THE REPETITIVE FORMS OF CREATIVE LABOR SHE EMPLOYS. SHE FORAGES FOR MATERIALS AND ARTIFACTS CHARGED WITH MEANING PREVIOUSLY WORN CLOTHING, FABRICS, LEATHER, AND PHOTOGRAPHS, AS WELL AS DRIFT WOOD, SAND DOLLARS, AND SEASHELLS THAT SHE OFTEN COLLECTS FROM HER SURROUNDINGS IN TORONTO, NEW YORK, OR OUTSIDE OF HER FAMILY'S HOME IN NEGRIL, JAMAICA. THE EVOCATIVE OBJECTS LEWIS GATHERS AND TRANSMUTES CONSTITUTE A RELATIONSHIP IN HER WORK TO THE SOCIAL, CULTURAL, AND PHYSICAL LANDSCAPES SHE MOVES THROUGH, COLLECTS FROM, AND INHABITS. LEWIS'S UPCYCLING RELATES TO FORMS OF MATERIAL INVENTIVENESS PRACTICED BY DIASPORIC COMMUNITIES, WHEREIN WORKING WITH THINGS CLOSE AT HAND IS A REPARATIVE ACT AIMED AT RECLAIMING AGENCY. THROUGHOUT, LEWIS'S INTEREST IS IN HONORING AND ADVANCING THESE DIASPORIC TRADITIONS, AND EXPLORING, AS SHE HAS SAID, "THE TRANSFERENCE OF ENERGY AND EMOTION THAT OCCURS WHEN AN OBJECT IS MADE BY HAND." FOR THE ICA, HER FIRST SOLO MUSEUM EXHIBITION IN THE U.S., LEWIS IS CREATING A NEW BODY OF WORK. THE EXHIBITION IS ACCOMPANIED BY A CATALOGUE, THE ARTIST'S FIRST MONOGRAPH. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, MANNION FAMILY CURATOR, WITH MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. CHARLES ATLAS: ABOUT TIME OCTOBER 10, 2024 - MARCH 16, 2025 BRIDGITT AND BRUCE EVANS AND KAREN AND BRIAN CONWAY GALLERIES CHARLES ATLAS: ABOUT TIME IS THE FIRST U.S. MUSEUM SURVEY OF THE PIONEERING INTERDISCIPLINARY ARTIST CHARLES ATLAS (B. 1949 IN ST. LOUIS). SPANNING 50 YEARS OF WORK, THIS RETROSPECTIVE IS CONCEIVED AS AN IMMERSIVE ENVIRONMENT FOR THE VISITOR, FEATURING SEVERAL MONUMENTAL MULTI-CHANNEL VIDEO INSTALLATIONS, OR "WALK-THROUGH EXPERIENCES," AS THE ARTIST DESCRIBES THEM. TO CREATE THESE INSTALLATIONS, ATLAS "EXPLODES" SINGLE-CHANNEL VIDEOS INTO NEW CONFIGURATIONS, PRESENTING THE VIDEOS ON MULTIPLE SUSPENDED SCREENS AND MONITORS AROUND THE GALLERY, SO VISITORS CAN MOVE BETWEEN AND AMONG THEM. ATLAS'S EARLY CAREER IS DEFINED BY HIS TIME AS FILMMAKER-IN-RESIDENCE AT THE MERCE CUNNINGHAM DANCE COMPANY, NEW YORK. ATLAS AND CUNNINGHAM CREATED THE GENRE OF "MEDIA-DANCE": DANCE MADE FOR THE CAMERA, RATHER THAN AN IN-PERSON AUDIENCE, WHEREIN THE CAMERA MOVES SEAMLESSLY IN CONCERT WITH THE DANCERS. SINCE LEAVING THE MERCE CUNNINGHAM DANCE COMPANY IN 1983, ATLAS HAS BEEN A LEADING FIGURE IN FILM AND VIDEO ART, AND ONE OF THE PREEMINENT ARTISTS TO CAPTURE DANCE AND PERFORMANCE FOR THE CAMERA THROUGH GROUNDBREAKING COLLABORATIONS WITH MICHAEL CLARK, YVONNE RAINER, LEIGH BOWERY, MARINA ABRAMOVIC, RASHAUN MITCHELL, AND SILAS RIENER, AND MANY OTHERS. MUCH OF ATLAS'S GENRE-DEFYING, COLLABORATIVE WORK HAS PROVED PRESCIENT FOR A GENERATION OF ARTISTS WORKING TODAY. CONTEMPORARY CONCERNS SUCH AS THE CREATIVE POSSIBILITIES OF PERFORMANCE AND PORTRAITURE ON CAMERA AND THE POLITICAL URGENCY OF CHALLENGING CONVENTIONS OF GENDER, SEXUALITY, AND QUEER IDENTITY HAVE BEEN AT THE HEART OF ATLAS'S CREATIVE OUTPUT FOR DECADES. CHARLES ATLAS IS ORIENTED AROUND THE ARTIST'S GROUNDBREAKING WORK AT THE INTERSECTIONS OF MOVING IMAGE, DANCE, AND PERFORMANCE, AND HIS INTIMATE VIDEO PORTRAITS OF CLOSE COLLABORATORS AND FRIENDS. THE SHIFTING POLITICAL AND CULTURAL LANDSCAPE OF THE UNITED STATES FROM THE 1970S TO THE PRESENT ACTS AS A BACKDROP TO THIS DYNAMIC VISUAL EXHIBITION, ADDRESSING THEMES OF PERFORMANCE AND PORTRAITURE, GENDER AND SEXUALITY, AND COLLABORATION AND FRIENDSHIP. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, MANNION FAMILY CURATOR, WITH MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. PORTRAITS FROM THE ICA COLLECTION JANUARY 25, 2025 - DECEMBER 28, 2025 KIM AND JIM PALLOTTA GALLERY THIS EXHIBITION SHOWCASES THE DEEP HOLDINGS OF PORTRAITS IN VARIOUS FORMS OF MEDIA WITHIN THE ICA COLLECTION, EXPLORING HOW ARTISTS CREATE IMAGES OF THEMSELVES AND OTHERS TO COMMUNICATE THE EMOTIONS, POLITICS, AND BEAUTY OF REPRESENTATION. PORTRAITS OFFER BOTH ARTISTS AND SITTERS A MEANS TO CONVEY PERSONAL AND LIVED EXPERIENCES AND, THROUGH THIS, AN OPPORTUNITY FOR VIEWERS TO REFLECT ON THEMSELVES. UNLIKE MORE HISTORICAL PORTRAITS, WHICH OFTEN CELEBRATED THE ARISTOCRACY AND THOSE IN POWER, CONTEMPORARY PORTRAITURE EXPLORES A BROADER AND MORE INCLUSIVE RANGE OF PEOPLE AND IDENTITIES. THIS SELECTION OF ALMOST THIRTY WORKS REFLECTS THE RICHNESS OF TODAY'S DIVERSE NARRATIVES AND REMINDERS OF OUR SHARED HUMANITY. ORGANIZED BY ERIKA UMALI, CURATOR OF COLLECTIONS. SARA CWYNAR FEBRUARY 7, 2025 - SEPTEMBER 7, 2025 SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALL THE COLORFUL AND LAYERED PHOTOGRAPHS, FILMS, AND INSTALLATIONS OF SARA CWYNAR (B. 1985, VANCOUVER) EXAMINE THE EXCESS OF PICTURES IN TODAY'S IMAGE-SATURATED CULTURE. FOR THE SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALL, THE ARTIST IMAGINED A NEWLY CREATED PHOTO MURAL CENTERED ON AN ALPHABETICAL LIST OF TERMS DRAWN FROM INTERNET SEARCH ENGINES. THESE INCLUDE WORDS SUGGESTED BY SEARCH ENGINE ALGORITHMS IN RESPONSE TO CWYNAR'S ONLINE ACTIVITIES AND SOME OF THE MOST POPULAR SEARCH TERMS SINCE 2020. THE ARTIST REPRESENTS THE TERMS THROUGH COMMONPLACE IMAGE TYPES: THE RECLINING WOMAN, DOMESTIC OBJECTS, PERFECT LOOKING FOOD, FAMILIAR LOGOS, LUXURY CARS, AND MORE. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | THESE IMAGES ARE COMPLEMENTED BY HANDWRITTEN ANNOTATIONS WHICH CREATE CONCEPTUAL CONNECTIONS AND RAISE QUESTIONS ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THESE ECLECTIC IMAGES AND THEIR INDEX OF TERMS. CWYNAR DRAWS ON THE PRINCIPLES AND HISTORY OF BILLBOARD DESIGN TO CREATE HER MURAL, WHERE WHAT IS BEING "ADVERTISED" IS THE SEDUCTIVE POWER OF COMMODITIES AND SEARCHING IN OUR CONTEMPORARY MOMENT. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, MANNION FAMILY CURATOR, WITH MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. BELIEVERS: ARTISTS AND THE SHAKERS FEBRUARY 13, 2025 - AUGUST 3, 2025 FOTENE DEMOULAS GALLERY SINCE ARRIVING IN AMERICA FROM ENGLAND 250 YEARS AGO, THE SHAKERS - A CHRISTIAN SECT OF PACIFISTS - HAVE OCCUPIED A UNIQUE PLACE IN THE AMERICAN NATIONAL IDENTITY. ALSO KNOWN AS THE UNITED SOCIETY OF BELIEVERS IN CHRIST'S SECOND APPEARING, THE SHAKERS ASCRIBE TO VALUES OF COMMUNAL LIVING, CELIBACY, SHARED PROPERTY, AND GENDER AND RACIAL EQUALITY, AND THEY ARE WIDELY RECOGNIZED FOR THEIR SIMPLE LIVING, ARCHITECTURE, MUSIC, AND FURNITURE. THE SHAKERS HAVE CAPTURED THE IMAGINATION OF COUNTLESS ARTISTS SINCE AT LEAST THE EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY, WHEN IDEAS ABOUT PERFECTION, ELEGANCE, AND PRACTICALITY ASSOCIATED WITH SHAKER LIFE AND MATERIAL CULTURE TOOK HOLD. THESE IDEAS ENTERED MORE STRONGLY INTO THE AMERICAN CONSCIOUSNESS FOLLOWING A STRING OF INFLUENTIAL EXHIBITIONS AND BOOKS, MANY OF THEM ORGANIZED AND AUTHORED BY COLLECTORS OF SHAKER FURNITURE. BELIEVERS BEGINS WITH THE FRUITS OF AN UNORTHODOX RESIDENCY INSTIGATED BY CURATOR FRANCE MORIN DURING THE SUMMER OF 1996. TEN ARTISTS WERE INVITED TO LIVE, WORK, AND WORSHIP IN THE ONLY REMAINING ACTIVE SHAKER COMMUNITY, IN SABBATHDAY LAKE, MAINE. THE RESIDENCY YIELDED A DYNAMIC BODY OF WORKS FEATURED IN THE EXHIBITION THE QUIET IN THE LAND, CURATED BY MORIN AND BROUGHT TO THE ICA BY JILL MEDVEDOW IN 1998. BELIEVERS REUNITES A CORE GROUP OF WORKS FIRST PRESENTED IN THE QUIET IN THE LAND BY ARTISTS JANINE ANTONI, KAZUMI TANAKA, WOLFGANG TILLMANS, NARI WARD, AND CHEN ZHEN (SEVERAL OF WHICH ARE BEING REMADE OR REIMAGINED FOR THIS EXHIBITION) ALONG SIDE MORE RECENT WORKS BY ARTISTS JONATHAN BERGER, TAYLOR DAVIS, GORDON HALL, PALLAVI SEN, AND CAULEEN SMITH. BELIEVERS CONSIDERS HOW CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS NEGOTIATE THE SPACE BETWEEN RECEIVED REPRESENTATIONS OF THE SHAKERS AND THE UTOPIAN COMMUNITY'S VITAL EXPERIENCE AS ORDINARY PEOPLE ATTEMPTING TO LIVE AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, MANNION FAMILY CURATOR, WITH TESSA BACHI HAAS, ASSISTANT CURATOR. SARA CWYNAR: ALPHABET FEBRUARY 13, 2025 - AUGUST 3, 2025 PAUL AND CATHERINE BUTTENWIESER GALLERY SARA CWYNAR (B. 1985 IN VANCOUVER) EXAMINES THE EXCESS OF PICTURES IN TODAY'S IMAGE-SATURATED CULTURE THROUGH A VAST ARCHIVE OF VISUAL MATERIAL, INCLUDING SELF-MADE, COMMISSIONED, DOWNLOADED, AND FOUND PHOTOGRAPHS. SHE REUSES THESE IMAGES INCISIVELY THROUGH A COLLAGE AESTHETIC THAT DRAWS ON THE VISUAL LANGUAGES OF DESIGN AND ADVERTISING. FOR THE ICA, CWYNAR IMAGINED A NEWLY CREATED, TWO-PART PROJECT FOR THE MUSEUM: A PHOTO-BASED INSTALLATION CALLED ALPHABET AND A RELATED PHOTO MURAL FOR THE SANDRA AND GERALD FINEBERG ART WALL. ALPHABET IS AN INSTALLATION COMPRISING A CONSTELLATION OF IMAGES RELATED TO AN ALPHABETICAL LIST OF TERMS DRAWN FROM INTERNET SEARCH ENGINES PRESENTED ON TWENTY-SIX PANELS. THESE INCLUDE WORDS SUGGESTED BY SEARCH ENGINE ALGORITHMS IN RESPONSE TO CWYNAR'S ONLINE ACTIVITIES AND SOME OF THE MOST POPULAR SEARCH TERMS SINCE 2020. SHE EXPLORES THE TERMS THROUGH AN ARRAY OF ASSOCIATED IMAGES, OBJECTS, AND VIDEOS PRESENTED AROUND THE GALLERY ON PANELS INSPIRED BY GERMAN ART HISTORIAN ABY WARBURG'S MNEMOSYNE ATLAS (1925-1929). WARBURG ORGANIZED AN ENCYCLOPEDIC COLLECTION OF NEARLY 1,000 IMAGES ON BLACK PANELS TO UNDERSTAND RECURRING VISUAL THEMES AND PATTERNS ACROSS TIME AND CULTURES, FROM ANTIQUITY TO THE PRESENT. EACH OF CWYNAR'S SELECTED TERMS CONNECTS TO CONTEMPORARY LIFE AND WAYS OF SEEING THAT, LIKE WARBURG'S CONSTELLATIONS OF IMAGES, REFER TO A PAST THAT INFORMS THEIR MEANING TODAY. FOR CWYNAR, ALL ARCHIVES, INCLUDING THE INTERNET, ARE INFLECTED WITH HUMAN BIASES AND FAILED ASPIRATIONS TOWARD OBJECTIVITY. EVEN STILL, AS THE HUMAN IMPULSE TO SEARCH FOR ANSWERS GOES ONLINE, CWYNAR CONSIDERS HOW "PERSONAL RESPONSES TO THE WORLD ARE FILTERED THROUGH A HISTORY OF IMAGES THAT TRAILS BEHIND US. ORGANIZED BY JEFFREY DE BLOIS, MANNION FAMILY CURATOR, WITH MAX GRUBER, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. COLLECTION SPOTLIGHT: AVATARS OF THE EIGHTIES APRIL 8, 2025 - AUGUST 3, 2025 THIRD FLOOR LOBBY THESE LENS-BASED WORKS, CREATED BY WOMEN ARTISTS IN THE 1980S, REVEAL THE PERSONAL AND POLITICAL POTENTIAL OF TRANSFORMING ONESELF INTO AN ALTERNATE SELF. IN NEW YORK IN THE SUMMER OF 1980, HOWARDENA PINDELL DONNED A WIG AND SUNGLASSES TO BECOME AN ANONYMOUS "WHITE WOMAN" WHO DISCOUNTS THE DISCRIMINATION THE ARTIST EXPERIENCED AND RECOUNTS IN HER VIDEO WORK FREE, WHITE AND 21. THAT SAME YEAR IN THE SAME CITY, CINDY SHERMAN COMPLETED THE UNTITLED FILM STILL SERIES IN WHICH SHE PERFORMS AS DIFFERENT FEMALE CHARACTERS TO CRITICALLY RECONTEXTUALIZE MOVIE SCENES. NINE YEARS LATER IN AUSTRALIA, TRACEY MOFFATT EMBODIED A FEMALE CHARACTER IN THE OUTBACK PURSUING HER DREAMS TO CREATE THE PHOTOGRAPHIC SERIES SOMETHING MORE. EACH OF THESE ARTISTS EXPLORES THE FABRICATED AND COMPLEX NATURE OF IDENTITY BY SHAPESHIFTING INTO AVATARS. ORGANIZED BY EMILY SHOYER, CURATORIAL FELLOW. STANLEY WHITNEY: HOW HIGH THE MOON APRIL 17, 2025 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 KAREN AND BRIAN CONWAY GALLERIES FROM EARLY BREAKTHROUGHS TO MATURE FORMAL EXPERIMENTS, HOW HIGH THE MOON IS THE FIRST RETROSPECTIVE TO TRACE THE EVOLUTION OF STANLEY WHITNEY'S WHOLLY UNIQUE AND POWERFUL ABSTRACTIONS OVER THE COURSE OF HIS 50-YEAR CAREER. THE EXHIBITION'S TITLE IS INSPIRED BY THE 1940 SONG PENNED BY NANCY HAMILTON AND MORGAN LEWIS, WHICH BECAME A JAZZ STANDARD THAT HAS CONVEYED ENCHANTMENT, LONGING, AND, IN SOME INTERPRETATIONS, HAS REACHED FOR THE SUBLIME. SINCE HE BEGAN MAKING THEM IN 2002, WHITNEY'S SQUARE-FORMAT, LOOSELY GRIDDED ABSTRACT CANVASES HAVE INCREASINGLY CAPTURED THE IMAGINATION OF VIEWERS. EACH CONTAINS FOUR HORIZONTAL ROWS OF ALTERNATELY ASKANT AND ORDERED SQUARES PAINTED IN VARYING DEGREES OF OPACITY. WHILE WHITNEY'S FORMAT HAS REMAINED CONSISTENT OVER THE PAST TWENTY YEARS, NO PAINTING IS THE SAME AS ANOTHER. AS HE BUILDS THESE IMMERSIVE ABSTRACTIONS, WHITNEY HOLDS SPACE FOR HIS VIEWERS TO FOCUS NOT ON EACH PAINTING'S SUBJECT, BUT RATHER ON OUR OWN RESPONSE TO COLOR. HOW HIGH THE MOON FEATURES EXTENSIVE INSTALLATIONS OF THE ARTIST'S IMPROVISATORY SMALL PAINTINGS; HIS DRAWINGS AND PRINTS, WHICH CONSTITUTE THEIR OWN IMPORTANT PRACTICE FOR WHITNEY; AND A CHRONOLOGICAL SELECTION OF THE ARTIST'S SKETCHBOOKS SPANNING FROM 1987 TO 2021, WHICH OFFER A VIEW INTO WHITNEY'S ENGAGEMENT WITH THE WRITTEN WORD AS WELL AS POLITICS. THROUGHOUT, HIS WORK IS PUT IN THE CONTEXT OF HIS DIVERSE SOURCES OF INSPIRATION, WHICH INCLUDE MUSIC, POETRY, AMERICAN QUILTS, AND THE HISTORY OF ART AND ARCHITECTURE, AMONG MANY OTHERS. WHITNEY'S POWERFUL, COLOR-SATURATED ABSTRACTIONS GIVE VIEWERS THE SPACE TO FEEL WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN, TO MENTALLY WANDER, AND TO GATHER THE STRENGTH TO SURVIVE. THIS TOURING RETROSPECTIVE, THE FIRST SURVEY OF WHITNEY'S WORK EVER ASSEMBLED, DEMONSTRATES THE TRUE HEIGHT OF HIS ACHIEVEMENT. STANLEY WHITNEY: HOW HIGH THE MOON IS ORGANIZED BY THE BUFFALO AKG ART MUSEUM. THE EXHIBITION IS CURATED BY CATHLEEN CHAFFEE, CHARLES BALBACH CHIEF CURATOR, BUFFALO AKG ART MUSEUM. THE ICA/BOSTON'S PRESENTATION IS ORGANIZED BY RUTH ERICKSON, BARBARA LEE CHIEF CURATOR AND DIRECTOR OF CURATORIAL AFFAIRS, WITH TESSA BACHI HAAS, ASSISTANT CURATOR. CHRISTIAN MARCLAY: DOORS APRIL 17, 2025 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 BRIDGITT AND BRUCE EVANS GALLERIES "DOORS ARE FASCINATING OBJECTS, RICH WITH SYMBOLISM. THEY CAN HIDE OR REVEAL, EXPRESS OPPOSITES OF LIGHT OR DARK, EXTERIOR OR INTERIOR, OPEN OR CLOSED THEY ARE COMMONPLACE, YET UNFAMILIAR. WE FIND OURSELVES WONDERING WHAT IS ON THE OTHER SIDE, WHERE WE MAY END UP. THERE IS FEAR AND ANXIETY WE ASSOCIATE WITH THE UNKNOWN, BUT ALSO ANTICIPATION AND POTENTIAL." - CHRISTIAN MARCLAY CHRISTIAN MARCLAY (BORN 1955 IN SAN RAFAEL, CALIFORNIA) IS A PIONEERING DJ, COMPOSER, AND VISUAL ARTIST RENOWNED FOR HIS EXPERIMENTAL WORK ACROSS SOUND, VIDEO, SCULPTURE, COLLAGE, AND INSTALLATION. |
| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A | IN DOORS (2022), MARCLAY STITCHES TOGETHER HUNDREDS OF SHORT FILM CLIPS FEATURING THE OPENING AND CLOSING OF DOORS. MORE THAN A DECADE IN THE MAKING, THE MOVING IMAGE COLLAGE DRAWS FROM NEARLY ALL GENRES OF NARRATIVE CINEMA RANGING FROM FRENCH NEW WAVE TO HOLLYWOOD BLOCKBUSTERS. CAREFULLY EDITED BY MARCLAY, THE VISUAL NARRATIVE FOLLOWS ACTORS ENTERING NEW SPACES, WITH EACH DOOR MARKING AN EDITING POINT AND TRANSITIONING BETWEEN FILMS AND SOUNDSCAPES. THE WORK SUGGESTS A LABYRINTHINE JOURNEY WHERE PROTAGONISTS GET LOST AND FOUND AGAIN. MARCLAY DESCRIBES THE VIDEO AS SCULPTURAL - A "MENTAL ARCHITECTURE THAT THE VIEWER MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT FOLLOW AND GET LOST IN." THIS EXHIBITION IS THE U.S. PREMIERE OF DOORS. ORGANIZED BY TESSA BACHI HAAS, ASSISTANT CURATOR. COLLECTION SPOTLIGHT: KADER ATTIA APRIL 29, 2025 - AUGUST 17, 2025 FIRST FLOOR CRYSTALLINE SUGAR CUBES STACKED LIKE BRICKS ON A SILVER PLATTER MELT SENSUOUSLY, ABSORBING THICK BLACK LIQUID AND CRUMBLING INTO A GLISTENING, VISCOUS MASS. KADER ATTIA'S VIDEO OIL AND SUGAR #2 MARRIES SIMPLE MATERIALS - MOTOR OIL AND SUGAR CUBES - EVOKING THEIR STATUS AS COMMODITIES CARRYING THE WEIGHT OF CENTURIES OF GEOPOLITICAL COMPETITION, EXPLOITATION, AND DISTINCT CULTURAL AND POLITICAL MEANINGS. THE ARTIST DESCRIBES THE WHITE CUBE AS "THE CORE SYMBOL OF ART, OF THE SPACE OF ART, OF THE INSTITUTION." DRENCHED IN OIL AND RENDERED BLACK, THE STRUCTURE EVOKES THE KAABA, ISLAM'S HOLIEST SITE VISITED BY MILLIONS OF PILGRIMS ON THE ANNUAL HAJJ TO MECCA. ONCE DISSOLVED BY OIL, THE FORMLESS MASS CALLS TO MIND ONGOING VIOLENCE SPARKED BY RESOURCE EXTRACTION AND RELIGIOUS AND POLITICAL DIFFERENCE. THROUGH A COMPOSITION AS BEAUTIFUL AS IT IS DESTRUCTIVE, OIL AND SUGAR #2 OFFERS A CASE STUDY IN CONTRASTING COLORS, TEXTURES, FORMS, AND TEMPORAL FLOW. ORGANIZED BY MEGHAN CLARE CONSIDINE, CURATORIAL ASSISTANT. CHIHARU SHIOTA: HOME LESS HOME MAY 22,2025 - SEPTEMBER 1, 2025 ICA WATERSHED IN HER AWE-INSPIRING INSTALLATIONS, CHIHARU SHIOTA (BORN 1972 IN OSAKA, JAPAN; LIVES AND WORKS IN BERLIN) FOREGROUNDS STORIES OF MIGRATION, HOME, CONNECTION, MEMORY, AND CONSCIOUSNESS. USING LINE IN THE FORM OF STRING, SHIOTA CREATES IMMERSIVE INSTALLATIONS THAT UNDERSCORE HUMAN CONNECTION AND EXPERIENCE. FOR THE ICA WATERSHED, SHIOTA WILL PRESENT TWO SIGNATURE, LARGE-SCALE INSTALLATIONS THAT CONSIDER THE WAYS HUMANS COLLECT MEMORIES AND FORM CONNECTIONS AS THEY MOVE AND TRAVEL: A SITE-SPECIFIC ITERATION OF ACCUMULATION SEARCHING FOR THE DESTINATION (2014/2025) AND A NEWLY COMMISSIONED INSTALLATION, HOME LESS HOME (2025). IN ACCUMULATION - SEARCHING FOR THE DESTINATION, DOZENS OF VINTAGE SUITCASES HANG FROM RED ROPE, OCCASIONALLY SHAKING WITH THE TURBULENCE OF ANTICIPATION. FOR SHIOTA, WHO BROUGHT ONLY ONE SUITCASE WITH HER WHEN SHE MOVED FROM JAPAN TO BERLIN IN 1996, THE SUITCASE SYMBOLIZES THE STARTING POINT OF A NEW JOURNEY. HOME LESS HOME FEATURES AN ENORMOUS FIELD OF RED AND BLACK ROPES FORMING THE SHAPE OF A HOUSE. WITHIN THIS SYMBOLIC FORM, SHIOTA SUSPENDS PAPER DOCUMENTS - PASSPORTS, LETTERS, IMMIGRATION PAPERS, MESSAGES - AND EMBEDS BEDS, DESKS, CHAIRS, AND TABLES TO UNDERSCORE HOW PEOPLE CREATE THEIR HOMES THROUGH COMMUNICATION, STORIES, AND OBJECTS. TOGETHER, THESE TRANSPORTING WORKS WILL CONSIDER THE JOURNEY TOWARDS ONE HOME AND AWAY FROM ANOTHER. FEATURED AS PART OF THE BOSTON PUBLIC ART TRIENNIAL 2025, THIS EXHIBITION, CHIHARU SHIOTA'S FIRST SOLO PRESENTATION IN NEW ENGLAND, AMPLIFIES THE WATERSHED AS A UNIQUE SPACE FOR PUBLIC ART IN BOSTON. IN DIALOGUE WITH THE TRIENNIAL'S THEME OF EXCHANGE, SHIOTA ISSUED AN OPEN CALL TO CONTRIBUTE IMAGES AND STORIES THAT WILL BE PRINTED AND INTEGRATED INTO HER NEWLY-COMMISSIONED WORK, HOME LESS HOME.

| FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C | EACH FALL, THE ICA REQUIRES ALL ITS TRUSTEES TO DISCLOSE ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST ON A DISCLOSURE STATEMENT. THE PURPOSE OF THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY IS TO GIVE GUIDANCE TO THE ICA'S LEADERS ABOUT AREAS OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST SO THAT CONFLICTS, REAL OR PERCEIVED, MAY BE IDENTIFIED EARLY, DISCLOSED, AND RESOLVED APPROPRIATELY. IDEALLY, THIS POLICY WILL PROTECT THE ICA'S INTERESTS WHEN IT IS CONTEMPLATING ENTERING INTO A TRANSACTION OR ARRANGEMENT THAT MIGHT BENEFIT THE PRIVATE INTERESTS OF AN OFFICER OR TRUSTEE. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTUAL OR POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST, A FIDUCIARY SHALL DISCLOSE ALL MATERIAL FACTS TO THE PRESIDENT, CHAIRPERSON OR DIRECTOR AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE TIME AFTER THE SITUATION BECOMES KNOWN TO THE FIDUCIARY. THE FIDUCIARY SHALL ALSO DISCLOSE SUCH MATTERS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS AT THE TIME THE FIDUCIARY SIGNS THE ANNUAL STATEMENT OF THIS POLICY, OR OTHER REPORTING AND CERTIFICATION PROCEDURES AS THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES SHALL REQUIRE FROM TIME TO TIME. AFTER DISCLOSURE OF THE FINANCIAL INTEREST AND ALL MATERIAL FACTS, AND AFTER ANY DISCUSSION WITH THE FIDUCIARY, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD SHALL FINALLY DETERMINE WHETHER ANY CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTS. IF THE FIDUCIARY IS PRESENT FOR THIS DISCUSSION, THEN THE FIDUCIARY SHALL LEAVE THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD MEETING WHILE THE DETERMINATION OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST IS DISCUSSED AND VOTED UPON. IF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT A CONFLICT EXISTS WITH RESPECT TO A TRANSACTION, THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD SHALL: (A) ALLOW THE FIDUCIARY TO MAKE A PRESENTATION TO THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD, BUT AFTER SUCH PRESENTATION, THE FIDUCIARY WITH THE FINANCIAL INTEREST SHALL LEAVE THE MEETING DURING THE DISCUSSION OF, AND THE VOTE ON, THE TRANSACTION THAT INVOLVES THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST; (B) APPOINT, IF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD DEEMS IT APPROPRIATE TO DO SO, A NON INTERESTED PERSON OR COMMITTEE TO INVESTIGATE ALTERNATIVES TO THE TRANSACTION; (C) DETERMINE, BY A MAJORITY VOTE OF THE NON INTERESTED TRUSTEE MEMBERS OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE PRESENT, WHETHER THE TRANSACTION IS IN THE ICA'S BEST INTEREST AND FOR ITS OWN BENEFIT; IS FAIR AND REASONABLE TO THE ICA; AND, AFTER EXERCISING DUE DILIGENCE, DETERMINE WHETHER THE ICA CAN OBTAIN A MORE ADVANTAGEOUS TRANSACTION WITH REASONABLE EFFORTS UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES; AND (D) TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO ANY VIOLATION OF THIS CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. |
