Sol LeWitt: A Wall Drawing Retrospective
This landmark 25-year exhibition comprises 105 of LeWitt’s large-scale wall drawings, spanning the artist’s career from 1969 to 2007. These occupy nearly an acre of specially built interior walls that have been installed—per LeWitt’s own specifications—over three stories of a historic mill building situated at the heart of MASS MoCA’s campus. The 27,000-square-foot structure, known as Building #7, has been fully restored for the exhibition by Bruner/Cott & Associates architects, which has closely integrated the building into the museum’s main circulation plan through a series of elevated walkways, a dramatic new vertical lightwell, and new stairways.

Badlands: New Horizons in Landscape
Opening the next chapter in the landscape tradition, addressing contemporary ideas of exploration, population of the wilderness, land usage, environmental politics and the relativity of aesthetic beauty, Badlands comes at a critical time, in an era when the world is more ecologically aware yet more desperately in need of solutions than ever before.

Eastern Standard: Western Artists in China
Offering a look at China through a different lens, this exhibition features a range of works by artists addressing the complex issues facing China in the wake of industrialization and globalization, as well as their reverberations in the West.

    Anselm Kiefer: Sculpture and Paintings
    German artist Anselm Kiefer conjoins matter, history, and time in a moving installation of paintings and monumental sculpture. MASS MoCA’s galleries feature four vast landscape paintings from a recent series never before seen in the United States.

    Being Here is Better than Wishing We’d Stayed
    The Miss Rockaway Armada is a collective of artists, musicians, and adventurers-of-all-stripes who spent the summers of 2006 and 2007 journeying down the Mississippi River on a fleet of “junk-rafts.”Using wood and other materials salvaged from MASS MoCA’s campus, the group crafted an environment that exudes the aesthetic, vision, and essence of The Miss Rockaway Armada’s experiences on the Mississippi River.

    Kidspace open noon to 4 PM on Saturdays and Sundays.
