April 2 - 26 | Boston Sculptors Celebrates Its 20th Anniversary
Curated by UML professors James Coates and Ellen Wetmore
Outdoor Exhibition continues through June 30.
Reception: April 4, 5 - 7 pm; Artist Events TBA
This show highlights the variety of approaches to sculpture explored by the Boston Sculptors. The Boston Sculptors is a group of artists who recognized in 1992 that there was a shortage of exhibition opportunities for sculpture in Boston. They set about to create more opportunities, in exhibition spaces, public galleries and in public art. What began as a series of conversations over dinner has, twenty years later, yielded two excellent commercial galleries and numerous critically recognized shows. This exhibition will feature an eclectic examination of materials and include both works on the campus grounds, gallery installation, and unique objects exploring a variety of material and formal expressions. Representative works from Massachusetts Cultural Council award winning artists Mags Harries, Hannah Verlin, Beth Galston, Rosalyn Driscoll, Sarah Hutt, Laura Baring-Gould, and Julia Shepley, will be on display, as well as important works by Sally Fine, B. Amore, Peter DeCamp Haines, Dan Wills, Murray Dewart, Andy Moerlein, Donna Dodson, and Joyce McDaniel. This show is offered in conjunction with year-long activities in Boston to celebrate the group’s twentieth anniversary.
