Work by Massachusetts College of Art and Design students now has a home in Bostonâs SoWa district. MassArt x SoWa is a brand-new gallery devoted to art by current enrollees and alumni of the collegeâs graduate programs. The space arrives at a time when most college-affiliated art venues remain closed to the general public.
The inaugural MassArt x SoWA show opens Wednesday with work from eight graduating MFA students. âThese are emerging artists who are experimenting,â said Lucinda Bliss, the collegeâs dean of graduate programs. âTheyâre making all kinds of work: videos, installation performances, traditional painting.â
