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.

SUMMARY:Mx. Media: An Art Education Practicum Show
DESCRIPTION:Reception: December 17\, 5–7pm\n\nAoife Bergeron: Beverly High School\n\nFinnley Lewis: Marshall Middle School\n\nMx. Media is a showcase presented by Mx. Aoife Bergeron (they/them/él) and Mx. Finnley Lewis (they/them/él)\, celebrating their experience as student teachers and the work of their students over the course of their student teaching practicum. Mx. Bergeron and Mx. Lewis helped to develop their students’ foundational artistic skills through a wide array of mediums\, including linoleum printmaking\, charcoal\, colored pencils\, clay\, and fiber arts. This showcase is a reflection not only of the work of the students\, but the diligent effort of both teachers as they navigate not only full-time teaching\, but the experience of being visibly nonbinary in the classroom. Mx. Media represents the diversity of our learners and the educators who work with them.

SUMMARY:Haley Wood: Bad Alchemy
DESCRIPTION:Artist Reception: Friday\, February 6th\, 5:30-7:30pm \nIn a new series created for the Carol Schlosberg Gallery\, fiber artist\, Haley Wood\, explores the classic imagery of alchemy—such as the three stages of blackening\, whitening and reddening\, and the hermaphroditic form—through intricate textiles and layered compositions. Wood draws visual parallels between alchemical themes and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) as described by the psychologist\, Carl Jung\, such as imagery of the wheel and ouroboros representing the cyclical nature of compulsive thought. \nBad Alchemy is an exploration of the dynamic between Hermetic alchemy and Jung. Then called “compulsion neurosis\,” Jung described individuals with this condition as “indeed brimful of inhuman beastliness and ruthless evil\, against the integration of which the very delicately organized personality puts up a desperate struggle.”  By performing various acts of “meticulousness and ceremonial punctilio\,” the ruthless evil within may be avoided. \nWood’s series for this exhibition is also inspired by the Slapp Happy/Henry Cow song “Bad Alchemy”\, “Bad” translates in German to a prefix for spa towns\, or villages with a healing hot spring. In the central piece of this exhibition Wood investigates the purification rituals that can manifest both in alchemy and OCD.  Whether there will ever be a solution to this inhuman beastliness is unknown- but to look upon a quote from Jung’s dream analysis: “Salvation does not come from refusing to take part or running away. Nor does it come from just drifting. Salvation comes from complete surrender; with one’s eyes always turned to the centre.” \nHaley Wood is a fiber artist living in Cambridge\, Ma. She has shown her work at the Abigail Ogilvy Gallery in Los Angeles and Boston\, the MassArt Auction\, and the SPRING/BREAK Art Fair in Manhattan. She holds a BFA in Fibers from Massachusetts College of Art & Design. She has received the MassArt Milestone Grant\, Comics Advocacy Group Mini Grant\, Marilyn Pappas Award\, and the Barbara L. Kuhlman Award. \n

SUMMARY:Ena Kantardžić: to give what is due
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: February 14\, 2026\, 5–7PM\n301 Cabot St\, Beverly\, MA 01915 \nNemesis cursed Narcissus for his vanity\, causing him to die staring at his own reflection. Nemesis is a distributor of fortune and retribution\, neither good nor bad—literally meaning “to give what is due.” \nto give what is due by Ena Kantardžić is an experiential exhibition at Montserrat College of Art’s FRAME 301 Gallery. The show features UAV (unmanned aircraft vehicle) documentary footage of Kantardžić’s on-going land work echo 2 as 2-channel laser projection\, as well as new material created from harvested narcissi (daffodils). \nWithout a consistently coherent horizon\, to give what is due disorients viewers in two consequential flights\, following the vision of the drone via the lasers of the projector. The physical remnants of the satellite site line the architecture of the gallery\, reflecting sunlight while framing the boundaries of the videos. Accentuated by varying degrees of visibility\, to give what is due considers perceptibility across circumstantial conditions: contrasting void with life\, stability with line\, and retribution to sympathy. \necho 2 is a performative installation in the Green Mountains. Dug by hand\, Kantardžić planted 1000 narcissus bulbs in a trench 144ft/44m long\, moving thousands of pounds/kilos of earth. Inspired by Richard Long’s 1967 sculpture Line Made by Walking\, Kantardžić is interested in human impact on the land\, with land understood as the root of conflict. Informed by their family’s refuge to the United States due to the Yugoslav Wars\, the artist reappropriates themes and materials of contemporary warfare. \nWorks on view: \nUntitled (echo 2)\, 2024–2025\nUAV footage .mp4 as 2-channel laser projections\nDimensions variable/23:23 \nUntitled (shadow)\, 2026\nNarcissus pseudonarcissus bioplastic and muscovite\nDimensions variable \nFor more information\, visit https://www.ekantardzic.com
