MASS MoCA Fall 2018 Brochure

ON STAGE & IN THE GALLERIES FALL 2018

We’ll celebrate the 10th anniversary of LeWitt’s tenure at MASS MoCA with our friends from Yale University Art Gallery and the Williams College Museum of Art with a series of artist talks, stories, and scholarly discussion on Saturday, November 17th, with a full day of activities punctuated by performances from artists whose work has been influenced by Sol’s. Join us for that.

There are lots of other reasons to come back this fall: The FreshGrass Festival — a raucous weekend of music, art, food, and friends — kicks off a knock-out season on our stages. Heavenly voiced, aptly named Angel Olsen, guitar-player-with-mystique Bonnie “Prince” Billy, and front-womanwithout-inhibition Merill Garbus’ tUnE-yArDs highlight a stellar indie rock and pop line-up. A powerful filmic take on Chekhov’s The Seagull will also feature live music, and we expect a one-of-a-kind made-at-MASS MoCA moment when Wilco’s Glenn Kotche, choreographer Danielle Agami, and mad man Jon Hamm converge in North Adams for a work-in-progress showing of their hard-to-classify collaboration: it’s not quite theater, not quite dance, but a totally mesmerizing exploration of desire.

We hope to see you in the galleries too: we’ve extended Liz Glynn’s run in Building 5 through early winter; there’s still time for one last long look at Etel Adnan’s sweetly searing color studies, Allison Janae Hamilton’s magically haunting Pitch, and the stunning and barely lit paintings of The Lure of the Dark. And if you haven’t noticed, there is new art in our Anselm Kiefer gallery (open through late November), and Laurie Anderson has switched up some things as well. The long lines for Turrell get easier to manage this time of year, so take a plunge into the light (or into the frigid waters of Taryn Simon’s A Cold Hole, for the truly intrepid).

Joseph Thompson Director P.S. There’s no better time to become a MASS MoCA member than right now.

Members get the most MASS MoCA, including free admission to visit the galleries every day, as well as good discounts at our retail store and performing arts events.

Sol LeWitt, Wall Drawing #439, May 1985.

Sol LeWitt at MASS MoCA: whoa, where did that 10 years go? Sol’s epic wall drawing retrospective has not only delighted well over a million patrons, but the whole idea of a deep-dive, long-term “museum within the museum” became the dynamo that drove our collaboration with the Hall Art Foundation and Anselm Kiefer, Jenny Holzer, Laurie Anderson, and James Turrell. When Sol said that the idea is the machine that makes the art, he knew what he was talking about.

ANGEL OLSEN with JULIANNA BARWICK

“Knockout vocals, driving guitars, and a killer sense of humor that makes no apologies.” — NPR From the low-fi, sparse folk-melancholy of her 2010 EP, Strange Cacti, to the electrified, polished rock ‘n’ roll bursting from 2016’s beloved and acclaimed My Woman, Angel Olsen has refused to succumb to a single genre, expectation, or vision. Singing her precise lyrics with a warbling wild voice that blends Dolly Parton and Patti Smith, Olsen swirls sun-kissed dream pop and brooding garage rock into something impressionistic and new — and she’s never better than when she’s solo acoustic, as she will be here. Electronic artist Julianna Barwick’s hypnotic, otherworldly sounds open the show.

BONNIE “PRINCE” BILLY with THE OTHER YEARS

Heartland icon An enigma of the folk-rock world — The New Yorker calls him “one of the country’s most celebrated singersongwriters” despite the fact that he’s never signed with a label and rarely tours — Bonnie “Prince” Billy is hard to find, easy to love, and impossible to dismiss. Singing about bottomless heartache and cowboy philosophy, he’s here with a sprawling band for an intimate and uncensored show this fall.

The Louisville folk duo The Other Years warms up the house.

ARTS EDUCATION AT MASS MoCA Through its nationally recognized arts education programs, MASS MoCA is a longstanding curricular cornerstone in the public schools of North Adams and northern Berkshire County — students here enjoy one of the strongest arts programs in the U.S., rooted in MASS MoCA’s unparalleled Kidspace exhibition and studio program.

The museum reaches more than 2,500 elementary school students who visit at least three times each year for innovative experiences with visual and performing art. Many students get one-on-one time with exhibiting artists during intensive week-long residencies.

Middle and high school students explore social justice through the art of Jenny Holzer, Lonnie Holley, and more. Nine local high schools participate in an annual art show when hundreds of student artworks are installed in MASS MoCA galleries for a wild spring weekend celebrating local student talent.
