#MFAnow: Frances Stark & other art

I've been spending some time perusing the Museum of Fine Arts (MFA) contemporary art exhibits.  I recently visited their enormous Frances Stark exhibit.  The exhibit is a melange of collage, video art, and mixed media pieces.  I took photos of a very small percentage of what there was to see.  There is some graphic language and images of male genitalia, fyi.

There were a few other pieces, from elsewhere in the museum, that also caught my eye.  I hope you'll also find them intriguing:

Tomorrow I'm going to share some more photos from the museum.  I saw a really great printmaking exhibit featuring Terry Winters' work and I'm excited to share it with you!

Thanks for stopping by!

  • Thanks so much for taking us along to the museum. I, too, was mesmerized by the geometric circle piece that seemed to be in motion.
