SUMMARY:Tom Radovich: Wonder Room
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours\nOpen to Montserrat community M-F\, 10am-5pm or by appointment: gallery@montserrat.edu \nThomas Radovich is the former Associate Director of Admissions and an artist who works in woodcarving\, painting\, printmaking\, and animation to explore topics of nostalgia\, memory\, and play. His current body of work is a series of wood carvings based off his childhood drawings. \nAs a child\, Radovich created over a thousand figurative drawings on paper that he would transform into paper cut-out figures. He would then integrate the cut-outs into play with other action figures. His grandmother preserved these drawings in a manila folder labeled “Thomas Cut-outs.” The folder of cut-outs grew into a shoebox full of over 1\,200 drawings. \nSince 2017\, Radovich has created carved wood sculptures based on his childhood drawings. In these whimsical wood sculptures\, Radovich carefully recreates the details of the original drawings — gloss medium recreates Scotch tape that was used to repair drawings\, tears in the original drawing are recreated with a box cutter\, and the yellowing of the paper over time is reproduced with diluted acrylic paint. \nRadovich’s installation\, Wonder Room\, presents several hundred of his miniature wood figures. They are displayed on thrifted and vintage shelving units\, evoking the imaginative and interior space of an adolescent  bedroom filled with collections and playthings. \nAfter creating hundreds of these wood sculptures\, Radovich began creating animations with them including a series of stop-motion animations retelling Dragon Ball Z\, a cartoon that he has not seen in two decades\, from memory. \n

SUMMARY:Karmimadeebora McMillan: Wandering stars...for whom it is reserved...the blackness...the darkness...forever
DESCRIPTION:The Boston-based artist\, Karmimadeebora McMillan\, mines Black material culture and historical archives to reimagine Black histories through diverse media. In her first major solo exhibition in the region\, McMillan creates an immersive installation featuring animation\, painting\, and sound. Wandering stars…for whom it is reserved…the blackness…the darkness…forever is a kaleidoscopic journey through time that draws inspiration from sci-fi\, speculative fiction\, and Afrofuturism. \nWandering Stars debuts two animations\, one representing the Black historical past and the other\, a future for Black people and the building of a new world. Suspended throughout the gallery space are vibrantly painted cut-out figures. One such figure\, which McMillan refers to as Ms. Merri Mack\, is seen in multiple variations\, some solid in color while others are rendered in colorful detail. Based on a vintage doll portraying a black caricature\, and whose name is taken from a character in a nursery rhyme sung by enslaved children\, Ms. Merri Mack is a means for McMillan to reclaim and subvert racial stereotypes. As the central protagonist in McMillan’s futuristic narrative\, Ms. Merri Mack represents a catalyst for change\, leading the viewer through portals in time and toward a hopeful future. \nMcMillan’s work is rooted in references to Black culture across time. Allusions to the graphic boldness of the revolutionary Black art collective\, AfriCOBRA and images taken from the Black Panther Coloring Book\, a propaganda piece disseminated by the US government in the 1960s\, appear throughout McMillan’s paintings and animations.  Wandering stars…for whom it is reserved…the blackness…the darkness…forever\, the title taken from a song by the British band\, Portishead\, re-envisions the past\, present\, and future to explore the power of memory and how Black histories are held and carried. \nPresented in collaboration with bkprojects\, Watertown\, MA. \nWandering Stars among Boston Art Review’s Top Winter ’24 Exhibitions to See. \n  \nKarmimadeebora McMillan is an interdisciplinary artist working in painting\, printmaking\, sculpture\, animation\, installation\, and public art based in Cambridge\, MA. She received her Associate of Fine Arts degree from Peace College and MFA and Post Baccalaureate Certificate from SMFA at Tufts. She received her BA from her hometown in Fayetteville\, NC\, HBCU\, Fayetteville State University. \nMcMillan has shown extensively on the east coast and in 2021 received the Now + There public artists grant and is currently an Artist-in-Residence at the Boston Center for the Arts. She has performed with her mentor Magdalena Campos-Pons at the Guggenheim Museum in New York\, Queens Museum in New York\, and the Havana\, Cuba Biennale 15. Karmimadeebora is also the Director of the Post Baccalaureate Program at SMFA at Tufts. She is currently pursuing an Interdisciplinary PhD through Tufts University focusing on Black Women of Power. \n  \nRelated Events:\nArtist Reception + Community Meal: Wednesday\, February 7th\, 5-7PM \nArtist Conversation between Karmimadeebora McMillan and Charla Jones: Wednesday\, March 6\, 11 AM–12 PM\, H101 \n  \nImage: \nKarmimadeebora McMillan \nGenerations (detail)\, 2023 \nAcrylic and Collage on Canvas \n74×86 inches
