Visual Arts Review: “The Ravages of the Ax” — Marc Swanson at MASS MoCA and the Thomas Cole National Historic Site

A Memorial to Ice at the Dead Deer Disco does not demand political action from its audience. Instead, it allows viewers to sit within the stark reality of the present, and perhaps find some community within the shared reality that the space creates.

Visual Arts Review: “Ways to Baffle the Wind” — Exploring Humanity and Nature at Mass MoCA

Visual Arts Review: Helina Metaferia’s “Generations” — A Story of Heritage and a Call for Change

Visual Arts Review: Virgil Abloh Is Bringing in the Outside at the ICA

“Figures of Speech” is a kind of aesthetic/political injection: its messages are put across by pieces that seamlessly blend a number of genres, including sculpture, music, graphics, and film.
