SUMMARY:Wilber Blair: A Peek Inside the Coloring Book
DESCRIPTION:Reception Wednesday\, February 26\, 4–6pm.\nPublic is welcome. \nBlair’s saturated and atmospheric paintings reflect constant change\, transformation\, and metamorphoses of nature and imagined two-dimensional worlds. Through spatial illusion and surface\, representation and abstraction\, and the material and the immaterial\, Blair’s paintings are an accumulation of formal decisions used to express the complexity and mystery of sight\, memory\, and dreams. \nWilber Blair was a member of Montserrat’s adjunct painting faculty from 2003 to 2023. He taught classes in painting and drawing as well as Foundation courses such as Life Drawing\, Painting I\, and Painting Workshop.

SUMMARY:Compendium: Illustration Senior Thesis
DESCRIPTION:Montserrat Gallery and Schlosberg Gallery \nDates: April 30th – May 3rd \nReception: Wednesday\, April 30th\, 5–7pm \nThe Seniors of the Montserrat College of Art Illustration department announce their final show entitled COMPENDIUM\, opening in the Hardie Main Gallery and the Schlosberg at 23 Essex St in Beverly\, April 30 and continuing through May 3. The opening reception for COMPENDIUM takes place Wednesday\, April 30\, from 5–7pm \nThe work displayed in COMPENDIUM is from a collection of seventeen illustrators with a wide variety of approaches\, styles\, applications and backgrounds. Despite the range of both conceptual and narrative subject matter\, as well as distinctly different materials and displays\, all of the work comes together nicely to form a physical manifestation of the time and effort dedicated to this show. COMPENDIUM has roots in many facets of illustration. From sophisticated collage to traditional paintings with acrylic\, ink\, and watercolor\, the presence of fine art is strong in the show. Many featured artists make use of multimedia to explore new and innovative ways of art making and self-expression. There is physical work\, sculpture combining paper craft with illustrative elements\, as well as more commercial items like garments with hand-printed designs. Including sizes ranging from delicate holiday cards and intricate book jackets to impressively large movie posters and tapestries\, there is no shortage of diversity in projects. Exploring narrative and concept design\, there are examples of imagined environments\, game assets\, character design\, and an abundance of sequential art in the form of comics and children’s books. \nAbout the Artists:  \nRose Aggi is an independent illustrator living in Massachusetts with their sweet cat named Zinnia. Dabbling in many things\, Rose gravitates towards silly and cute aesthetics in digital art\, usually with an emphasis on animals. \nKailani Banasik views their work as a window into the world of their stories\, captivating their audience with whimsy. Taking narratives and concepts and giving them life with color and silliness is their goal as an illustrator\, with hopes to enter the kidlit world. They take inspiration from everything around them\, from video games to the people and animals in their lives\, morphing it into something fantastical and fun. \nGrace Cantalini was born and raised in western Massachusetts. With indulgence in escapist fantasy and a nod to classic science fiction\, her work places an emphasis on vibrant colors and intricate line work. Inspired by the natural world and the limitless possibilities of outer space\, her focus is on environmental and figurative illustration. \nCat Cheseldine is a New England based illustrator who concentrates on delicate details\, fluid states of movement and evolutionary qualities in her subjects. Cat‘s work uses flora and fauna as both subjects and symbolism to create meaning in her pieces. \n“The natural world around us offers so much to be admired\, the delicate blade-like feathers on the birds\, the vibrant colors of beetle shells\, and the shapes of stems that swirl and build according to the circumstances of their environment\,” Cheseldine states. \nAna Chirinos is a Venezuelan-American illustrator raised in Texas and currently based in the North Shore of Massachusetts. Inspired by the Golden Age of Illustration and the unique visual qualities of printmaking\, her work combines intricate linework and texture with grandiose\, almost theatrical compositions. Through careful symbolism\, framing\, and color\, her pieces highlight the humanity at the core of every story. \nAlexis Defranc is a self-described mix of an artist with an unhinged fascination for the ‘Modern Era’\, a passionate writer\, and an 80s rock mixtape. Born and based in Southeastern Massachusetts\, they strive to make their work feel as alive as the next song they have on shuffle. \nLucas dos Santos is a Brazilian Illustrator who utilizes printmaking and photography in order to create work that takes inspiration from the media he grew up with\, mainly derived from Japanese Live-Action superhero shows. \nJessica Ganino is an artist based in Saugus\, MA. Their work is offbeat and mixes bubbly cuteness with macabre elements. Primarily digital and heavily detail focused\, their work reflects a sophisticated contrast. \nRebecca Jordan is an artist living and working in Massachusetts. Her work is rooted in quiet rhythms of personal experiences\, inviting the viewer into a space where moments unfold with tenderness. Through soft\, fluid strokes and muted hues\, the work speaks in a gentle whisper\, offering a window into her world while leaving room for the viewer to engage on their own terms. \nCicey Labella is an Illustration major and Art Education minor at Montserrat College of Art. They are a painter and printmaker who creates work based on their life\, identity\, and making people laugh. \nJasmyn Mall is an illustrator based in Massachusetts despite originally hailing from a small\, peculiar New Jersey town. Her upbringing in Jersey has instilled a fascination and appreciation for the strange and folkloric\, which has led her to create work focusing on these subjects. \nAbigail Monson is a Massachusetts-based interdisciplinary artist working in a variety of mediums\, including collage\, painting\, printmaking\, and fiber arts. Informed by her past career in computer science and her interest in biology\, architecture\, and science fiction\, her work explores our relationship with everyday technology\, the tension between the past and the future\, and the overlooked beauty of the natural world. \nAdrian Persaud is an Indo-Guyanese and Brazilian artist working towards racial diversity in the media. His works explore life as a mixed-race individual\, reaching out to help others feel heard. His pieces blur the lines between fine art and illustration\, having process and material take the spotlight. \nNewt Ryan is known for creating creepy\, disturbing\, and intentionally perverse art with religious overtones that often features contorted figures\, muted colors\, and an abundance of insects. \nQuin Schaeffer is a narrative artist whose work draws influence from queer history and culture\, combined with the aesthetics of the film noir era\, and the golden age of Hollywood. Coming from a family who values creativity and enjoys old-school suspense and thriller films\, those two themes come together in Quin’s art making\, from their teens into their current young adult years as they finish their college degree. \nAri Varney is an illustrator living in Massachusetts. Ari is constantly intrigued by the concept of nostalgia\, trying to illustrate human experiences and emotions. They also enjoy making art that is warm and a bit silly at times. \nVivi Young is an Illustrator based in New England\, working in watercolor\, graphite and acrylic. Her art focuses on fantasy and horror themes viewed through a whimsical lens.

SUMMARY:Between the Lines: Graphic Design Senior Thesis
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Wednesday\, May 7\, 5–7pm \nBetween The Lines is an exhibition showcasing the work of seven graphic designers and their explorations\, pushing the boundaries of their creative practice. Emphasizing the stories\, processes\, and ideas that emerge in the subtle spaces between concept and execution. \nProject Statements:\nInherited Legacy \n\nJorielle Arlock  \nInherited Legacy explores long term and short term impacts of collective consumption and culture. Through the exploration of commonly wasted ephemera\, I embodied the narrative of what represents us and what we value as society. I collected remnants of consumer culture and started to curate a collection of metaphors about how that impacts us as people. Eventually\, I came to the idea that you can unearth your own legacy based on what you value\, and not what has been impressed upon you. \nUnder Construction \nMikayla Bogus \nUnder Construction is an amalgamation of bits and bobs of early web design. It is inspired by a time before the web was so overly corporate\, when people would create their own sites compiling their interests with an abundance of gifs\, images\, comic sans\, and blinking buttons. It takes a look into the spaces between content as well\, such as error pages\, fun uses of html\, and the forever unfinished webpages archived from sites such as Geocities. \nInside the Mind\nLyllian Caporuscio  \nFocusing on the psychology behind design\, and how that influences the work. I looked at common everyday objects and how I could use them in my work. That is when I focused on the spoon\, and how I had perceived it. Finding meaning\, I have categorized how spoons in literature and pop culture exist\, for means of nourishment\, as a metaphor for privilege\, and a tool for measurement. Looking at nourishment\, I searched for what that means\, and how it ultimately relates to the spoon. \nIntuitivity within Design\nJillian De Paolo \nExperiments with concrete poetry and free association tests led me to explore language. Hard definitions and etymologies are the rational and objective application of language. I am interested in intuitively interpreting words\, symbols\, and phrases with multiple meanings. Through tests and surveys\, I found the idiosyncrasy within the results posed that particular vernacular or personal bias can have an extraordinary impact on how we view the world and communicate. The vast antinomy within our ideas\, languages\, systems\, and intuitions reflect the semantics of our language. To prove our intuition’s validity\, I use empirical data to visualize infographics to show that anything can seem plausible with the right design. \nDanger in Beauty\nBrandon Hale-Montminy \nLately I’ve had an interest in the lengths people go for beauty and how beauty seems to be one of the most important things to a lot of people. That’s crazy to me so I tried to find a way to describe the absurdity of that in a way I can relate to. This landed me on the topic of poisonous flowers seeing as flowers are most known and sought after for their beauty but at the same time they can be an extreme danger for the owner and/or their pets and children. I find that this danger makes these flowers even more beautiful and this danger is why I’m drawn to them. I’m well aware this makes no sense but many people are like this regarding other things so I’m here to show the beauty without ever letting people forget about the danger. \nMake AI Your Bytch\nDylan Maher \nMake AI Your Bytch confronts the possibility of AI-generated design taking over the world. Common signage is used as a reference for visual solutions that are nonsensical when placed in the real-world. The goal is to demonstrate why designers shouldn’t rely on algorithms to communicate an intended message. The project is not concerned with changing minds regarding the ethics of AI. The reality is that the technology isn’t going away anytime soon; which means it’s up to the next generation of creatives to learn how to use it responsibly. \nEscapism\nMarina Stagliola \nMy project focuses on escapism and how I use the act of decorating cookies to serve as my therapeutic process. It creates a state of mind that makes it possible for me to forget about the outside world. My attention is set on the task\, while awareness of my surroundings fades in and out of focus. Throughout this process I use royal icing as both a medium and a muse to relax and relieve stress. \n\n

SUMMARY:The Self Imagined
DESCRIPTION:Curator/Artists Talk + Reception: Friday\, September 19\, 5-8 PM \nComposed entirely of Gen-Z artists\, this exhibition pushes the boundaries of self-expression and portraiture as shaped by the internet and new technologies. Growing up with unrestricted access to the internet\, the online world is just as influential to Gen-Z as is the AFK (Away from keyboard) world. The Self Imagined believes it’s time to confront this reality. \nWhile the selected works build upon developments in the contemporary art world\, they also serve to inhabit their niches online. Using painting\, sculpture\, and video\, these young artists illustrate Gen-Z’s ability to navigate inside and outside cyberspace. Themes explored in this exhibition include emergent ideas of digital skins as tools to understand ourselves; interrogating the societal effect of face filters; art disguised as memes and “brain rot”; and furry art as a form of artmaking and a functional part of a lifestyle. \nBy utilizing our familiarity with the internet for creative expression\, this group declares that this can be the vanguard for 21st-century art. \nArtists are Aubrie Testa\, Bun\, Dozzy and Baycun\, Elan Warren\, Elliott Moore\, Ivy Howard\, Katie Dobberpuhl\, Lauryn Tyler\, Madeline McGann\, meowgirl300\, Michel Darling\, Niko Mlynarčík\, Noah Peairson\, Oscar Hunt\, Paola Silva\, Piero Roque\, and scrawnyraccoon. \nThe Self Imagined is curated by Piero Roque\, Montserrat Galleries Curatorial Assistant.

SUMMARY:Danielle Krcmar: Teasing Gravity
DESCRIPTION:The rocks of New England are over 500 million years old. Across Massachusetts we dispose of over 230\,000 tons of textiles annually.  Somerville artist Danielle Krcmar creates objects that mimic the region’s landscapes using second-hand clothing\, including worn and moth-eaten sweaters\, yarn\, and miscellaneous threads. Krcmar cuts\, pieces\, and sews to create soft sculpted rocks\, velvety mosses\, grasses and other greenery. In what Krcmar calls Post Consumer Terrain sculptures\, these soft objects tease gravity\, compressing geological epochs with textile weightlessness\, slow formation with consumer velocity. Krcmar’s installation for the 301 Frame Gallery\, Teasing Gravity\, holds the tension between persistence and play\, inviting viewers to reconsider both the enduring and the disposable in the landscapes we inhabit. \nDanielle Krcmar is an artist and curator of the RSM Gallery at Bentley University. She earned her BFA in Sculpture from SUNY Binghamton and an MFA in sculpture from UMASS Amherst. She has received grants from the St Botolph Club Foundation\, the Massachusetts Cultural Council\, the Blanche Colman Foundation\, and the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation. She has completed architectural sculpture commissions in Ridgeway\, Illinois and Knoxville TN\, and created outdoor installations for the Dartmouth Natural Resources Trust\, Forest Hills Cemetery\, and the Fort Point Channel area of Boston. Her work has been featured in Ocean State Review and Quilting with a Modern Slant in addition to having been reviewed in Sculpture Magazine\, The Boston Globe\, The Boston Herald\, The Boston Phoenix\, and Arts Media.

SUMMARY:Earthen Clay: As the apple disappears into water and sweetness in our bodies
DESCRIPTION:Artist talk: Monday\, September 22\, 11-12PM\, H101 \nArtist Reception: Wednesday\, September 24\, 5-7PM \nFree and open to the public \n  \nAs the apple disappears into water and sweetness in our bodies\, Earthen Clay’s first solo exhibition in Massachusetts\, includes paintings and sculptures made in the last two years. Clay’s site-responsive installation for the Montserrat Gallery is concerned with the space that is generated from the proximity of beings and objects and the experiences that unfold from these encounters. Folds\, stacks\, and stains contain embedded material and ask for prolonged acts of looking across unstable ground. Wooden scaffolding hold\, fix and bind\, allowing for spaces to exist within fragments of exuberant color and texture. \nThe exhibition’s title is taken from the book\, The Wise Heart\, by the American writer Jack Kornfield. Clay’s deeply personal work responds to Kornfield’s visual theorization of objects. Kornfield perceives that something like an apple\, is on the one hand\, a merely static thing in thought. But directly seeing\, holding\, or eating an apple is a succession of minute and ever-changing colors\, shapes\, and perceptions that are never still for a moment. Through a series of interrelated works that call to each other\, Clay is interested in questioning an unchanging\, fixed view that forecloses alternate potential liberatory futures. \nEarthen Clay was born in 1988 in Anchorage\, Alaska. He received his BFA from Watkins College of Art in Nashville in 2013 and his MFA from Yale School of Art in Painting and Printmaking in 2024. He attended Skowhegan in 2018 and was recently a teaching fellow at Norfolk Yale Summer School in Norfolk\, CT. His work has been shown most recently at SUPRS in Beijing\, Yossi Milo in New York\, and David Castillo in Miami\, FL. He works across disciplines including collage\, painting\, sculpture and site-responsive installation. \nRead the exhibition review in The Brooklyn Rail.

SUMMARY:Ron DiRito – Beyond Time: The Simultaneity of Now
DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk: Wednesday\, October 1\, 11am\, H101 \nReception and light refreshments to follow in the library.\n  \nWhat happens when the act of reading is disrupted—when the page\, that thin sheet of paper\, is gone?\nYet the words remain. \nThis question is at the center of Beyond Time: The Simultaneity of Now\, an exhibition by Ron DiRito. \nIn these works\, DiRito creates palimpsests—texts layered upon texts—where the page no longer separates one thought from another\, no longer orders language in time. \nInstead\, each panel becomes a site of compression: words collapsing into words\, \nsentences folding into themselves\, forming images made entirely of language. \nMeaning no longer resides in narrative \nbut in the autonomous forms of the text itself. \nStacked and layered\, the palimpsest pages present everything all at once. \nFor viewers\, they resolve not as text to be read but as pure visual experience. \nThese images blot out the world. They have no past. There is no next. \nThey live entirely in the present. \nThis is The Simultaneity of Now.

SUMMARY:Pastime: The Art of the Game
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Wednesday\, October 15\, 6-8pm \nMass-produced games of all types\, including interactive toys\, board and card games have entertained the public since the nineteenth century.

SUMMARY:Place\, Culture\, Presence: Student Works from Mallorca\, Spain
DESCRIPTION:Select works from eight students who traveled to Mallorca\, Spain\, in Winter 2025. \nThis exhibition presents work created during a two week intensive course in which students made art on location across the island. Traveling through cities\, villages\, coastlines\, and countryside\, participants explored how place\, culture\, and history shape creative experience and expression. \nDaily excursions to museums\, markets\, and historic landmarks provided cultural and historical context\, while Mallorca’s varied terrain\, its shifting light\, color\, and atmosphere\, became an ever changing studio. \nWorking on location in this context moves beyond traditional plein air practice. Rather than merely recording appearances\, students engaged in an act of radical attention\, a sustained awareness of time\, space\, and presence. Through observation\, reflection\, and creative response\, they became part of their surroundings\, translating the rhythm and essence of the island into visual form.
