PLEASE TOUCH THE ART exhibit opens June 6th with panel discussion

Please Touch the Art

Please Touch the Art is a multi-sensory exhibition aimed at creating an immersive artistic experience that engages all of the senses. Not only does Please Touch the Art challenge visitors to consider how they may engage with a work of art beyond seeing, it also challenges visual artists to consider how their work engages a diverse range of audience members.

There are 52 pieces of art in this exhibition. As  you navigate this exhibition, you are encouraged to take your time with each work of art. Many of the pieces tap into multiple senses including sight, touch, sound, and even smell! See how many senses you can engage with each piece. Also included in this exhibition is a humanities exhibit presenting a History of Blind Accessibility in the Arts. Please proceed up to the third floor after experiencing the artwork to experience a selection of artifacts and imagery related to over a century of innovation, adaptation, and inclusion.

 3-D installation; “doppelgänger” on display Jan 25 – March 29 at the Mosesian Center for the Arts 321 Arsenal St, Watertown 02472

Perceptions of Self(ie) leverages art and technology to address equity, diversity and inclusion through a community building public art exhibition. The project will challenge perceptions around art making accessibility in today’s digital age by utilizing the ubiquitous “selfie” in conjunction with the more traditional self-portrait art form – both of which will be displayed side by side throughout the MCA galleries. The project includes a series of free workshops and a traditional call for art and culminates in an exhibit at the Mosesian Center for the Arts. The exhibition will take place in all three of our gallery spaces located throughout our 30,000sq ft facility and will extend through the community with the installation of large-scale posters and banners designed to feature the broad array of faces on view in the Perceptions of Self(ie) exhibition.

GRIT: The Urban Landscape

September 12 – November 1, 2014
[Upper & Lower Galleries]

opening reception: Friday, September 12, 2014 5:30 – 7:30pm

The Copley Society of Art (Co|So) is proud to present the national juried exhibition GRIT: The Urban Landscape. Juried by Paul Ha, Director of MIT’s List Visual Arts Center, GRIT unveils the raw fabric of the cityscape, delving into the interconnected nature of postmillennial life at its most fundamental level. Here, at the foundation of society, structure and chaos meld into one. GRIT is the examination of this intrinsic platform of the urban landscape.

PAUL HA :
DIRECTOR OF MIT’S LIST VISUAL ARTS CENTER

“In respecting the Copley Society’s curatorial vision for GRIT, I decided that these artists in the exhibition met their criteria the best.  The artists chosen convinced me that though the urban area that surrounds, overwhelms, and confronts us each and everyday can be the grit in our lives, that we all can also find moments of unparalleled beauty and solace from that same exact environment.  The exhibition proves that Boston is alive in the arts and that contemporary artists are out there every day using our great city as their inspiration and gives us a different way to look and experience our city.”
