VANISHING ECOLOGIES: SPECULATIVE FUTURES
Vanishing Ecologies: Speculative Futures brings together an international group of contemporary artists working across sculpture, installation, painting, photography, sound, and time-based media. The exhibition examines artistic responses to the Anthropocene, a period characterized by the irreversible impact of human activity on the planet, and considers potential futures that may arise as a result.
SYNERGIES: HYBRID ART
The New Bedford Art Museum presents Synergies: Hybrid Art, a juried exhibition of 19 artists working in all media. This exhibition highlights work that merges artistic disciplines, materials, and technologies to create innovative forms of expression. The exhibition is juried by Amy Lemaire & Nicolas Touron, an artist duo based in Brooklyn, NY, whose collaborative practice explores materiality, form, and the intersection of natural and constructed environments. Working across diverse media, their work bridges the disciplines of sculpture, glass, and installation, creating immersive visual narratives that challenge perception and engage the senses.
