EXHIBITIONS
RADICAL REINVENTION: CONTEMPORARY
CERAMIC SCULPTURE
MARCH 13 - MAY 25
Radical Reinvention: Contemporary Ceramic Sculpture presents the work of artists who have redefined the possibilities of ceramics as a medium for sculpture. The exhibition showcases works that push the boundaries of material, form, and cultural interpretation and highlights the cross-over of ceramics from the worlds of utility and craft into the mainstream of contemporary art. The exhibition features innovative pieces influenced by ceramic practice and bodies of knowledge from diverse cultures—Ancient Egypt and Greece, Portugal, Southeast Asia—while incorporating contemporary sensibilities, themes, and ideas.
NEBULAE: THE UNIVERSE UNVEILED
DECEMBER 10 - MARCH 9
Nebulae: The Universe Unveiled celebrates a remarkable new gift to the Art Museum: six awe-inspiring NASA photographs of deep space, captured by the Webb and Hubble Telescopes. Selected by Mark Munkacsy, President of the Astronomical Society of Southern New England, these images are more than just breathtaking; they are rich visual documents that reveal and contextualize some of the universe’s most profound events, from the birth and death of stars to the echoes of the Big Bang, the ongoing expansion of the cosmos, humanity’s origins, and the search for extraterrestrial life.
