The Exhibition Living now in the Anthropocene, the 22 international artists whose works comprise this exhibition make resonant objects that appear as if glimpsed in a rearview mirror, from some time in an unknown future. They create a physical presence of what will be a disappeared past, conduits for assessment, and critique of current culture in the form of fossils. Like Paleolithic relics, they are largely cast—in glass, metal, plaster, and resins. The multimedia three-dimensional works in the exhibition can be organized into two loose divisions: corporal effigies that explore our bodily presence, and cultural fossils which reflects our technological present. Artists under consideration include Ai Weiwei (China/Portugal) Daniel Arsham (United States) Izaak Brandt (United Kingdom) LaKela Brown (United States) Jedediah Caesar (United States, United Kingdom, Germany) Julian Charrière (France/Switzerland, Germany) Yoan Capote (Cuba) Liz Glynn (United States) Lauren Halsey (United States) Matthew Angelo Harrison (United States) Hugh Hayden (United States) James Lewis (United Kingdom, Austria) Adam McEwen (United Kingdom, United States) Jean-Luc Moulène (France) Reynier Leyva Novo (Cuba) Damián Ortega (Mexico) Studio Drift (Netherlands) Do Ho Suh (Korea, United Kingdom) Clarissa Tossin (Brazil, United States) Marion Verboom (France) Nari Ward (Jamaica, United States) Rachel Whiteread (United Kingdom) Schedule January – April 2025 MassArt Art Museum, Boston, Massachusetts Summer 2025 – AVAILABLE Fall 2025 – AVAILABLE Winter 2025-26 – AVAILABLE Organizers MassArt Art Museum, Boston, MA Curators c2, a curatorial partnership between Ginger Gregg Duggan and Judith Hoos Fox, develops exhibitions of international, cross-media contemporary art and design that explore current issues in culture.
