SUMMARY:WORRIES BASH: Caitlin & Misha
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nM-F\, 10am–5pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: December 6\, 5-7pm \nWorries Bash is a participatory installation consisting of recorded worries collected from hundreds of people and presented as part of a continuous audio portrait emanating from fragile papier-mâché sculptures. Worries Bash is conceived by the artistic duo Caitlin and Misha. The pair create artworks that play with culturally relevant\, yet sometimes utopic examples of sharing communities\, livable ecologies\, and the transmutation of waste. They employ drawing\, design\, and sculptural techniques within a contemporary framework of interactive media and participatory installation. In addition to exploring ecology\, media\, and alchemy\, they create artworks that provide unique opportunities for shared experiences and group-based rejuvenation\, such as sweating\, meditating\, humming\, jumping\, and worrying together. \nAs part of this installation\, Caitlin and Misha have collected worries specifically from the Montserrat Community and will continue to collect any Gallery Visitors’ worries throughout the installation. These worries will be aggregated and included in the sculptures. \nWhen attendees tap or hit the sculpture a worry will come into focus so that it can be heard clearly before again submerging into an abstract murmur. There are many social situations where it’s unacceptable to express one’s worries\, even when they are the thoughts weighing most heavily on one’s mind. \nThis project is an opportunity to collect various types of worries and consider the emotional cycles which they represent. Worries Bash culminates with a public ceremonial destruction of the sculptures as a means to share and release worries. This pairing of worries with celebration aims to provide some insight into the complexities of the anxieties we live with. \nhttps://worries.io\nhttps://worries.io/bash\nhttps://caitlinandmisha.com/\n  \nINFINITE WORRIES BASH – 2020

SUMMARY:NARRATIVE
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nT–F\, 11:30am–2:30pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: October 24th\, 5–7pm \nThe Narrative Project challenges participants to think about the narratives that shape their self-identity\, deconstruct current political and cultural narratives\, and examine the relationship between what we know and what we believe. A narrative is a living cultural artifact\, created within the interstices between current ideas and history. Rather than creators\, a narrative has owners\, claimants and/or adherents. They may elect to change a narrative through the incorporation of new perspectives or by deliberately emphasizing or erasing certain aspects of it. Narratives are stories told to express a subjective essential truth or truths rather than to recount factual events. They may be created in opposition to other narratives and are primarily concerned with revealing what writer Patricia Hampl calls the “metaphorical truth\,” not what something is\, but rather what something is like. \nThe Narrative exhibition\, is envisioned as a sculptural space in which to highlight narrative works created by alumni from Montserrat College of Art. Featured alumni: Jackie Musto\, Joe Haley and Tj Dort\, Eben Kling\, Chelsea Sams\, Julie O’Boyle\, Lillian Kology\, Peter Mack\, Nick Criscuolo\, Michael Aghahowa \nThe exhibition will include a central gathering space for hosting the Narrative Festival’s screenings\, speakers\, panel discussions and performances. Many of the festival’s events will be student-produced.

SUMMARY:ANTHONY GOICOLEA: POSE
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nM–F\, 10am–5pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: October 3rd\, 5–7pm \nPose is the first New England solo-exhibition of the internationally acclaimed artist\, Anthony Goicolea. \nOn display is four connected and contrasting examples of Goicolea’s ideations. The gallery is bisected and the work is presented as two halves of the same mind. One must experience a section with the afterimage of the other heavy on their conscious. The gallery forces contemplation\, reflection\, and (false) memory; reminiscent of a dream. His work is not intentionally or overtly political. It is a visceral reaction to changing dialogues around ethnicity\, sexuality and religion. Growing up as a Cuban\, Catholic\, gay boy in the Deep South in the early 70’s\, heightened his awareness of social constructs and the changing nature of identity politics—a theme that continually informs his work. \n“Anonymous Self-Portraits” eschews traditional portraiture and renders identity through coded body language\, gesture and performance. Figures simultaneously reveal and conceal themselves as they push against the architectural boundaries of their vestments. \nIn a series of “Shadow Projection Portraits” Goicolea similarly investigates portraiture\, identity\, beauty and the grotesque in a suite of drawings/paintings on mylar film presented as videographic images with black bars framing the top and bottom. The letterbox format references the transference of wide format film to standard width video. The fact that these portraits are rendered as photo-like film-stills in graphite and acrylic further conflates the mediums of film\, photography\, and painting. \nEach portrait is an amalgamation of different facial features cobbled together from semi androgynous men and woman and have strong ties to the artist’s early composited self-portrait work. Borrowing the most visually compelling and striking characteristics from different portrait subjects\, Goicolea repeats traditionally beautiful features in duplicate or triplicate until they morph or dissolve into hauntingly abstracted and deformed renderings of engineered faces. Traditional portraiture encourages the viewer to hone in on specific characteristics to identify a specific individual. These portraits rebuke that instinct. It is almost impossible for the eye to rest on any one specific recognizable feature for too long before it dissolves into the next layer of dislocated eyes\, nose or mouth. \nAnthony Goicolea\, The Ticket: What’s Happening in the Local Arts World\, Cate McQuaid\, The Boston Globe \nLooking for Meaning in Pose by Anthony Goicolea at Montserrat\, Keith Powers\, Wicked Local / Beverly Citizen  \n

SUMMARY:Ollie Balf: A Bright Life
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nM-F\, 10am–5pm \nReception: November 13th\, 5–8pm \nIn the late 1940s after graduating college\, Balf would go on to live in New York and studied at the Hans Hofmann School of Fine Arts. While in those years artists from New York flocked to the coasts of Massachusetts\, instead of following Hofmann to Provincetown\, Balf landed in Rockport\, MA\, spending his first summer there in 1947. Balf was among the founding faculty of Montserrat which was officially open for enrollment in 1970. \nBalf fell in love with water-coloring on Cape Ann\, a medium he’d never been formally taught but later declared his favorite. In between visits to Old Garden Beach and East Gloucester’s Hawthorne Inn Jazz Club\, he knocked out three paintings a day. \n“Watercolor is full of surprises\,” he once wrote. “Colors are always different when wet\, and unpredictable when dry. Accidents are part of the process and you handle the accidents differently each time they occur\, so you never know what the final result will be.” \nA Bright Life features eight framed and fourteen unframed watercolors from various years\, ranging from abstract to observational. \nEvent created in conversation with “Hans Hofmann: The Nature of Abstraction” currently on view at the Peabody Essex Museum. \n \nLydia Gordon & Tim Harney: The Impact of Hofmann

SUMMARY:ANIMATE & INANIMATE: PRODUCTS OF NATURE September 11–14\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Crossing Water Container – Salem\n1 Bridge Street\nSalem\, MA 01970 \nGallery Hours\nTh-Sat\, 3–9pm \nReception: N/A \nThe question “What came first the chicken or the egg?” has been asked and debated by philosophers for over 2000 years\, essentially looking for an answer as to where everything began. In doing so\, this question drew a stark line between science and belief. The egg represents evolution\, or the “descent with modification”. Studies of Charles Darwin have shown that species change over time and evolve constantly\, meaning a bird similar to a chicken laid an egg that hatched to reveal the chicken we are familiar with now. The chicken represents God’s creation of man\, in reference to the biblical tale of  Adam & Eve. Christianity relies heavily on text that supports the idea of a god-created mankind\, circling back toAdam and Eve. \nThe installation will play devil’s advocate and play up both sides of this question. Due to personal biases\, the installation will not be able to dismiss a more heavily scientific influence\, dealing with the themes of extinction\, evolution\, domestication\, and humanity\, clashing with religion.  \nCurated by David Mshar & Lexi Palmberg

SUMMARY:Adrián Fernández Milanés: Pending Memories September 3–October 12\, 2019
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nT–F 11:30am–2:30pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: September 5th\, 5–8pm \nA solo exhibition of Havana-based multimedia artist\, Adrián Fernández Milanés. PENDING MEMORIES builds upon Milanés’ exploration of the artifice\, the spectacle of consumerism\, technological constructs (tangible and digital)\, and beyond. This iteration showcases a massive mixed-media sculpture reminiscent of an advertising billboard or the corpse of a military installation. At the foot of this altar does one gaze in awe or cower in defeat? Yet\, is it cloaked by banality of frequency in which we view the countless structures that dot our landscape and consciousness? \n\n\nMilanés studied visual arts at the San Alejandro Fine Arts Academy (2004) and later at the Superior Institute of Arts (2010) in Havana. From 2010 to 2012\, he trained at The Ludwig Foundation of Cuba and New York University\, Tisch School of the Arts Special Programs\, where he also taught. \n\nHe has exhibited extensively\, from Berlin to New York\, Houston to Antwerp\, including an installation for the 2019 Havanna Biennal\, Monument to an Incomplete Man. He is working towards a 2020 solo exhibition at the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo Wifredo Lam\, one of Cuba’s leading institutions.\n\n\nThis opportunity is made possible thanks to a partnership with A R E A Gallery\, Boston\, MA.\n\n

SUMMARY:WAR DEPT
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\n24/7 \nReception: September 17th\, 5–7pm \nThe War Dept. was adapted from a music theater piece by Jim Bauer and Ruth Bauer that was commissioned by the American Repertory Theater at Harvard University\, as part of a commemoration of the 150th anniversary of American Civil War. The War Dept. (music and lyrics by Jim Bauer\, script by Jim Bauer and Ruth Bauer) had a workshop performance at the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center in 2014. Blyth Hazen and Ruth Bauer collaborated on this adaptation\, transforming some of the elements of The War Dept. into a stop action video using puppets and a miniature set. \nBlyth Hazen makes things that move. Sometimes they are animations that appear to move on their own. Other times they need more assistance like a puppet\, robot\, or an automaton. She is a professor at Montserrat College of Art where she encourages her students to gesticulate and move around as much as possible.  Examples of her sculptural\, robotic and programmed animations can be seen at www.blythhazen.com.  \nRuth Bauer loves to combine images with narrative in lots of different media\, and now in a new fascination\, with puppets and stop action video. She is the co-creator\, with her husband composer Jim Bauer\, of the theater productions The Blue Flower and The War Dept. Ruth believes as strongly in nurturing young artists as in making art\, and is a faculty member and Chair of the Arts Department at Shore Country Day School in Beverly\, Massachusetts. More information about her various projects can be found at www. ruthbauer.com \n \nThe War Dept. from Blyth Hazen on Vimeo. \n

SUMMARY:Ashley Brown Durand:  It's Ok To Feel Things
DESCRIPTION:Carol Schlosberg Alumni Gallery\nHardie Building\n23 Essex Street\nBeverly\, MA 01915 \nGallery Hours\nM-F\, 10am–5pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: September 12th\, 5–7pm \n“I created the very first “It’s OK” banner for myself\, because I needed the reassurance. I was working multiple jobs at the time\, and never seemed to have enough free time to bring all my ideas to fruition. I was looking at a lot of imagery from the Woman’s Suffrage Movement\, and was especially interested in the handwork involved behind the scenes. Not only were these women fighting for their (our) rights\, but they were also creating every sash worn\, every banner carried\, by hand\, one at a time. I was moved by that thought alone. The time spent stitching each letter on an object that would move people to think\, to act. I knew I wanted to work with this idea somehow (I actually intended to make affirmation quilts). Very early into this project I stumbled upon a couple other artists using affirmations in wall hangings and I began to feel defeated before I even got started\, even though their work was nothing like what I wanted to make. So I created the “It’s OK” banner to remind myself to keep moving forward. To make my own work\, my own way. That was in the summer of 2010. Nine years later\, I’ve made over 7000 affirmation banners to help remind people all over the world to keep pushing forward\, to be kind\, to be brave.” – Ashley Brown Durand \nhttps://shop.secretholidayco.com

SUMMARY:PHOEBE WARNER: Parallel Reflections
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\n24/7 \nReception: N/A \n  \nParallel Reflections\nWe are points moving\, hovering\, and shifting.\nSometimes our points meet\nThey shiver together \n(For a moment) \nMost points move away so quickly\nWe don’t give them a second thought \nBut when the shiver resonates for long distances\,\nTurn back\,\nReflect. \n  \nPhoebe “Crazypants” Warner is a Boston-based interdisciplinary artist. Since her graduation from Montserrat College of Art in December 2015\, Warner has moved on to working as a painting mentor and assistant curator at Artists For Humanity in South Boston. When she isn’t working in the city\, she spends her time hiking mountains as a way to clear her mind and give her new perspectives. In a bustling metropolis\, it is hard to find moments of true quietude and self-reflection. Thus her current goal is to share the lessons\, views\, and insights she collects on the trails with her urban communities through immersive visual representation paired with poetic musings. “Parallel Reflections” is the first large-scale installation based on this theme. \nCatch her next show “Fragility” anytime in October!\nOpening October 4th at Flowering Rock Gallery\nSoWA 460 C Harrison Ave 17C\, Boston\, MA.

Combining his personal dystopian themes\, mascots\, and parody branding with similar subjects inspired by local history\, such as the\nMassachusetts Bay Colony\, Dogtown Village\, and the Great Depression. \nJulian Howley’s exhibition hopes to present art that exists squarely for use by the public commons and draws and inspires from the local public history of societal collapse\, collective outrage\, and potential chaotic rebirth. His work looks upon the tradition of gonzo illustration and global comic pulp\,\nalong with vintage woodcut printing and its symbolism\, showing to us figures and topics that exist as uncanny mascots of frenzied entropic energy and gleeful self-destruction \nhttps://www.julian-howley.com/

SUMMARY:NORMAN LALIBERTE: INSIDE THE MIND OF A MAKER
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nThursday–Friday\, 11:30am–2:30pm\nSaturday\, 12:00–5:00pm \nReception: June 20th\, 5–7pm \nInside the Mind of a Maker is a document and a fiction\, a retrospective and interpretation\, of the consciousness of the prolific artist\, Norman Laliberté. The stage is set as a cartographic journey through the years and various materials used throughout Laliberté’s career. The forty-two banners displayed in the gallery range from the 1960s to the 2000s and represent his numerous explorations of form and content\, from completely abstracted color studies to pictorial likenesses resembling ancient hieroglyphics. Figures\, flora\, fauna\, gods\, and ghosts dance upon the tapestries portraying tales and vignettes as complex as the great sagas of antiquity. Think of your time in the labyrinth as a hero’s quest; venture into the banners and experience the intricacies inside the mind of maker…you might be surprised at what you’ll find! \nBiography: \nBorn in Worcester\, Massachusetts of French Canadian parents\, Norman Laliberté grew up in Montreal\, returning to the U.S. to complete his education in Chicago. He first achieved international recognition as the design consultant for the Vatican Pavilion at the New York World’s Fair of 1964. \nHis 88 banners were an ingenious solution for an all-glass building with virtually no walls. Using the vibrant play of colour and light\, Laliberté creates cheerful\, energetic interpretations on themes of love and frolic\, joy and plenty\, that are highly symbolic and evocative. His abundant talents have been the subject of over 100 solo shows across America and Canada. \nHis work can be found in over 75 major public and corporate collections\, including some of the most prestigious such as the Smithsonian Institute\, the Nelson A. Rockefeller Collection\, and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. He has also been the author of over twenty books on many aspects of contemporary art. Still active\, Laliberté lives and works in Nahant\, Massachusetts. \nSpecial thanks: Norman Laliberté\, Laurel Laliberté\, Kristian Laliberté\, and Jan Saragoni \nNorman Laliberté\, The Ticket: What’s Happening in the Local Arts World\, Cate McQuaid\, Boston Globe \nExhibit of artist Norman Laliberte banners at Montserrat College\, Beverly Patch

Korosczka will return to campus to talk about his work\, inspirations and publishing career. His list of accolades and awards for his books and projects continues to grow and we are excited that we will be able to share his story with us and the greater Beverly community\,” said Montserrat President Kurt T.

A consummate advocate for arts education\, Krosoczka also established the Joseph and Shirley Krosoczka Memorial Youth Scholarships\, which fund art classes for underprivileged children\, in his hometown of Worcester\, Massachusetts. \nKrosoczka lives in western Massachusetts with his wife and children\, and their pugs\, Ralph and Frank.

SUMMARY:STEPHEN ST. FRANCIS DECKY
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\n24/7 \nReception: N/A \nVIVARIUM (SDE) (2019)\, 3-channel animated video w/sound\, 10m00s \nVIVARIUM (SDE) depicts the interior of an immense outer-space terrarium designed to transport entire ecosystems from one galaxy to another. In the video\, a giant blue alien peers lovingly through a portal into this environment\, admiring the diversity of life-forms thriving within. While many of the creatures appear to be decidedly earthling in form\, a range of extraterrestrial anthropomorphs can also be seen. Through the use of slow zooms and musical interstices that focus on individuals and small groups\, the details of life inside the Vivarium – at times gauzy and euphoric\, at other times hinting at some lost but very tangible world – begin to clarify. \nStephen St. Francis Decky is a multi-media artist and writer whose work has appeared in festivals\, collections\, and museums both nationally and internationally\, including The New Britain Museum of American Art and The Museum of Fine Arts\, Nagoya\, Japan. He has taught Animation and Digital Media classes at several schools\, including Tufts University and Moore College of Art and Design. As a technical consultant and collaborator\, he has worked on multi-channel video installations in Boston\, New York City and Montana. Stephen received his MFA from Tufts University and The School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, and currently lives and works in Philadelphia and Williamsport\, Pa. \nVisiting Artist talk:\nTuesday\, April 9\n11:30am–12:20pm\nH-201\, Hardie Building \n\n \n \n

SUMMARY:Automatic: An Exploration of Art and Authorship in an Age of Automation
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nT–F\, 11:30am–2:30pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nReception: February 7th\, 5–7pm \nAUTOMATIC is an exploration of the evolving role of technology as tool\, medium\, and active collaborator in artistic practice. Designed and developed by Sarah Trahan and Andrew Sliwinski\, this collection of work centers around a series of drawings produced by the Automatic Drawing Machine (ADM). \nInspired by Surrealist Automatism in which the artist suppresses conscious control over the making process – allowing the unconscious mind to guide mark making – the ADM transforms electrical activity in an artist’s brain into marks on paper. These drawings are produced while artists engage in a range of practices including painting\, drawing\, writing\, woodworking\, and computer programming – forming a type of call and response between the artist and the technology. \nThe system utilizes a non-invasive brain sensing technology called Electroencephalography (EEG) as well as custom software to transform raw brain activity into a graphic representation. This representation is then transferred onto paper using a modified computer-controlled plotter that uses a pen to produce the drawings shown in the gallery. \nAbout the artists: \nSarah Trahan \nSarah Trahan is an artist and educator who is preoccupied with exploring the visual and physical structures inherent to textile construction and what happens when generative digital processes and handmade materiality intersect.  \nSarah holds an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art and spent many years as a faculty member at the College for Creative Studies in Detroit\, MI. Sarah and Andrew both served as founders and managing members of OmniCorpDetroit; a collectively run hackerspace that is still operational in the city’s Eastern Market neighborhood. \nSarah is currently based in Cambridge\, MA and serves as Assistant Professor and Digital Fabrication Studio Director at Montserrat College of Art in Beverly\, MA.  \nAndrew Sliwinski \nAndrew Sliwinski is a research scientist with the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab. His research focuses on the intersection between learning\, creativity\, and technology. \nAndrew serves as co-director of Scratch—an online community and tool for kids to explore their creativity through computing which reaches over two hundred million children every year. Prior to joining MIT\, Andrew co-founded the learning community DIY.org and led learning research at the Mozilla Foundation. \nAs a designer and engineer\, Andrew has worked with various organizations during his career including Google\, LEGO\, General Electric\, Hewlett-Packard\, Toyota\, The Aspen Institute\, and Code for America. His work as a creative technologist has been displayed in The Museum of Science & Industry in Chicago\, The Museum of Modern Art in New York\, and Carnegie Hall. His work has been profiled by Wired\, The New York Times\, and Fast Company. \n

SUMMARY:FATTY SPICE: TUNNEL OF SELF LOVE
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\n24/7 \nReception: N/A \nA site-specific installation by Fatty Spice ’14! \nTUNNEL OF SELF-LOVE is the offspring of the line in the Bible “your body is a temple” and John Mayer’s line “your body is a wonderland”. It is a heavy nod to the theme park river rides that traveled through a tunnel for an excuse for couples to express affection during the time when PDA was not permitted. We all know the trend of bullying ourselves\, the “sad boi” vibe\, meme’s about sadness and counteracting that with self-love but the counteraction is mostly in private. It’s almost a cheesy thing to love yourself and not the good cheesy like the one in the blue box. Practicing self-love shouldn’t be a secret thing and ironically is the very first step to sharing love with others. Ru Paul’s encouraging words “If you don’t love yourself\, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?” couldn’t be more true. Be your own Valentine. Send yourself a “be mine” this year. \nfattyspice.com

SUMMARY:JESS DUGAN: EVERY BREATH WE DREW
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nM–F\, 10am–5pm\nSat.\, 12–5pm \nJanuary 31st 11:20am-12:20pm \nDiscussion led by Diane Ayott\nMontserrat Gallery 6:00-7:00pm \nJess Dugan Artist Talk\nLarcom Theatre 7:00–9:00pm \nArtist’s Reception\nMontserrat Gallery\nJess Dugan presents\, Every Breath We Drew\, which explores the power of identity\, desire\, and connection through portraits of myself and others. Working within the framework of queer experience and from my actively constructed sense of masculinity\, my portraits examine the intersection between private\, individual identity and the search for intimate connection with others. I photograph people in their homes and personal spaces\, using medium and large format cameras to create a deep\, sustained engagement\, resulting in an intimate and detailed portrait. \nI combine portraits of individuals\, couples\, and self-portraits to investigate broader themes of identity and connection while also speaking to my personal experience. The photographs of men and masculine individuals act as a kind of mirror; they depict the type of gentle masculinity I am attracted to\, and also the kind I want to embody. Similarly\, the photographs of relationships speak to a drive to be seen\, understood\, and desired through the eyes of another person; a reflection of the self as the ultimate intimate connection. \nRather than attempting to describe a specific identity or group- the gender identity and sexual orientation of the individuals varies greatly- Every Breath We Drew asks larger questions about how identity is formed\, desire is expressed\, and intimate connection is sought. \nFeatures: \nRainbow Times – Jess Dugan’s “Every Breath We Drew” Spotlighted At Montserrat Gallery \nCreative Collective MA – Jess T. Dugan’s “Every Breath We Drew” at Montserrat Gallery \nGreg Cook\, Wonderland – Photographer Jess T.
